My husband LOVED The 7th Guest game but we can't get it to play on our Dell Pentium IV with Windows XP.  Can anyone tell me exactly how to install this game on my computer and make it work properly?  Any ADVICE would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!
Sharonwhat are the requirements for the game?? and what are the specs on your computer??

is the cd damaged??

do you get any errors when trying to play the game??


unlovedwarriorMy computer is a Pentium IV, 2.2 Ghz, 1.0 gig of ram, Windows XP 2002, Service Pack 2. I have a Turtle Beach Santa Cruz sound card and a GeForce 3 ti200 graphics card with DVI.   The game requirements recommended are 486SX 20mhz or faster, 4 megs of ram, fast 16 bit SVGA video card, CD-ROM drive with 300k per second transfer rate and general MIDI device and 16 bit PCM sound card.  The disk is not damaged.  

I am following instructions in the game booklet and when I put the disk into my cd-rom drive and type letter of cd-rom followed by a colon and then press enter (again this is the instructions in the booklet) - nothing happens?  No error messages, nothing.  I obviously need step by step instructions on how to install. I'm pretty new at all of this.  Thanks for your helpok try putting the cd into the cd-rom and GOING to my computer and double clicking the cd and seeing if that works..It shows a T7G folder and an icon that says install.bat, ms-DOS batch file 1kb.  I clicked on both - the T7G folder opens to a bunch of files and the ms-dos batch file nothing happens.how old is this game??You'll have difficulty with DOS games on XP.

Click start, run, and type in cmd. Press enter. This will BRING up the DOS prompt. Try following the manual's instructions from there.The game is from 1993srry im not familiar with games that old.. try what neil saidI tried what Neil said and that didn't work either.  I guess it's just not going to work on this computer.  Thanks for all your help!try getting an old dos emulatorHey I wanted to let you know in case anyone else is trying to load The 7th Guest - I did some more searching on the internet and found a Setup Walkthrough and it worked!  The web address is http://earthlink.net/~infernofilecbinet1/XpSetUpWalkthroughsA.  Thanks again for all your help - I appreciate it!
