Act of War - Windows 98 ?

[tbaher]

I just wiped XP so I know what you mean .. I finally migrated from my trusty old 15GB HDD to a 160GB as a C: Drive .. (I had 5 other hard drives running in the box but the C: was a 15GB)

The drivers are not a problem at all .. between driverguide and manufacturer's websites.. you will get drivers for all the obscure hardware..
XP has MOST of the drivers built in or on windows update..

the problem is that you will lose "shutdown to dos" .. which is easily fixed by DOSBOX..

I recommend putting XP, if you have enough RAM .. performance will be better and life will be better in general.. (if you're annoyed by the new interface you can make it more classic)

I bought it and tried on a smaller PC with win98 on it, and it worked fine for me.

Then I got bored a bit and made a proper +2 trainer (since other ones *cough* dont work *cough*) :P

from the Atari-support and there confirmed that this game runs only on
Win2000/XP,

[DABhand]

120GB SATA HD

Latest drivers and directx9c installed, oh and this Win98 was SE. What is yours?


If it didnt work then how did I make the trainer for it? To make that I have to have run the game.

[DABhand]

Ill tell you just now, it was the original exe from the game. Didnt use a no-cd at all.

@Dabhand
Hehehe youve got 'herc' stumped! He wouldnt be real happy to know you have it working on 98! I certainly hope with all the trouble he is having that the game is worth it when he does get it working! If he gets it working!
