Hello!
I'm trying to get a really old (1994) Microsoft PC game to work on my XP
computer. Apparently, it's not doing well at all! The game is called
Microsoft Ancient Lands and its System Requirements were that it needed at
least a 386SX and Windows 3.1 (remember those?!). I thought that Windows was
made to be able to play games that were 'under' the latest versions. When I
put in the disk and do Start/Run/D:\setup the main screen of the game comes
up, but then the hourglass just turns and turns and I eventually get a (Not
Responding) message on the top 'tool bar'. This program is a great reference
source and I'd really like to be able to use it - any chance? Thanks much!
