Hi everyone...
I really like this game but I cannot make it work on Windows XP
I don't know what to do, and I'm really upset... I also tried to run Prince of Persia 1.3...and guess what...it didn't work either.

If someone knows some kind of emulator I could use, or another way to make this game work, please tell me :-)

DOSBox is an emulator, you can try that if you already haven't. http://dosbox.sourceforge.net

Otherwise you can right-click the game's EXE file, click Properties, tinker with the settings there, maybe you might change the right setting to get it working.

If you describe exactly what happened when you tried to run Prince of Persia 4D (maybe even a screenshot), it might make it easier for us to help you.

Thanks I've already downloaded DOSBOX :-)
Erm...do you know how to solve the problem of "insert prince of persia on c, bla bla" (that happens on level 10, or 11...I guess)

It appears the game is divided into multiple floppy disks. You may need to recreate the original diskette structure somehow, so that the game can use its built-in static links to find its data files.

Just an idea, not sure how valid it is...

For general information on POP4D from this thread
Btw, Wally if you're reading this thread, I probably send you a PM next week on more information (things like controls, cheats & frequent error messages-insert disk, hint-getting sword" for POP to add in your thread.

It is a bug in that is in POP4D. Yes that message "insert prince of persia disk in c:" will appear after level 10. Download the patch to fix it. See above link.

Numbers on numeric pad for physical movement and movement of sword (when holding sword), in particular 7 & 9 for jumping, Shift for holding on ledge or attacking with sword.

Not sure what you mean by "mirror-me". Do you mean your shadow twin? If you do, actual you have to face him, but not fight him. ;) Can't remember the level, have to check it out or someone else can tell you. Otherwise, are you referring to the physical mirror?
