Help: 11th Hour and XP

Post by Mike777 »

The game installs and runs with sound (with windows update .exe) but when you try a puzzle you just drop back to the desktop. Anyone get it to work in XP or DOS on an XP box.

11th Hour and XP

JTA - No not yet, but thanks for the quick reply. Because it 'mostly' works i.e. I can explore without problems, I hoped there may just be a simple XP 'tweak' I could try.

Someone just posted on another site that 11th hour will work if you set the compatibility to NT or 2000!!! I will try tonight. (this is assuming you have the windows patch)

Wow... This thread is three years old. Do you own a legitimate copy of the game, and did you mount your CD drive as well? If you didn't mount it, you'll have to, since DOSbox doesn't acknowledge anything's existance unless you tell it so.
