Will This game run on XP?

[Captain Artenon]

I ran across a link to this game on Dune wiki. It looks pretty fun!

Judging by the gameplay descriptions, I can see that Westwood used many of the same gameplay techniques in later games like SW:EaW when they integrated with Petroglyph (the tornadoes and air bombardment function very similarly).

Does anyone know if "Emperor" runs on XP? Will it run on a NX7800 graphics card?

And, most importantly, where would I find this many years later?

Well I've never had a problem running it on XP, just straight forward install,Patch and Run.

People with Norton install occasionally had problems but i believe there are solutions posted on the teach issues board to resolve any problems.

I believe you can download the game from the web these days, BUT there was some doubt as to whether this is legal, PM Spicy and he maybe able to assist with that.

There is an XP install patch available somewhere.

On Ebay probably.

You just had to say it, didn't you? ;)

Of course it works on XP, I've installed it on my Win XP computer several years ago and I never had a problem with it.

Places to buy it from include eBay and (I believe) amazon.com.

Wow, Amazon's price for Emp. is mighty steep...."Price at a Glance"

"Used: from $43.91

New: from $89.54".

I don't think I payed that much for it when it first came out. I would go with E-bay.

On the XP issue...Even if you somehow had problems within XP,you can always change the compatability mode for 95,98, 2k and so on.
