Solve : problems running games in dos (windows xp)? |
|
Answer» I downloaded an MSdos game pack, ran it through set up mode, and now it is just sitting there. When I DOUBLE CLICK it, the dos window pops up for about half a second, then goes away, and nothing else happens. I know that it has no viruses. Did I DOWNLOAD a dude, or am I doing something wrong. I don't know a whole lot about dos. Would appreciate any help you could give me. Thanks I downloaded an MSdos game pack, ran it through set up mode, and now it is just sitting there.

[highlight]Did I download a dude[/highlight], or am I doing something wrong. I don't know a whole lot about dos. I don't know if you downloaded a dude or not, but we do not know what game is involved, what OPERATING system you are using or anything about the hardware involved. See below.I think he meant "dud". age of empires, call of duty, civilization, quake, pro-evolution soccer are the games in the pack. YES I did mean "dud" the hardware involved I will try and answer by saying that I am running dos in windows xp on an hp pavilion zv6000. Is that what you needed to know???Have a read here: http://www.dosgames.com/xphints.php Compatibility Mode is the key. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/helpandsupport/learnmore/appcompat.mspx |
