  1. Well I do, problem is, its just a xp cd... I didnt really think boot drive was a word, but it was worth a shot. Anyhow, its the disc that was necesarry with the old windows packages (win 98, Win 95) a small disc you put into your 3,5inch A: thingy. a discette! or somethin.... hmmm, but its worth a shot, Ill take a look around on the net
  2. Thanks again, TFTD works like a charm with the old pack ^^ thats two down and one to go Ive thought about Virual Machine, it probably should make apoc work, but dont I need like a windows cd and a boot drive?
  3. I found my old copy of TFTD after some fiddeling about at the attic. Anyhow, its the direct draw bug again, so i downloaded the loader of the net, only to get the error message, Cannot Find Patch.dll, now first of all I hate dll files. Secondly I asume its about some form of patch, which i dont have.... Where can I find it?
  4. Weeee, I figured out the music problem, for some wierd reason the midi channel was set to my motherboard instead of my soundcard... stupid windows... Anyways thats one down and 2 to go. Actually changing the game speed doesnt help, its still slowish in combat, but thats a minor problem, one that I am more than willing enough to live with. Concerning TFTD, I have to look through my old cds to try again, Ill give you an update about it later on. I knew I had some kinds of problems. Apoc is the real problem though, I get it to work through Dosbox, its just so incredably laggish that its not playable, and installing windows 95 for one game is not really an option. So do you know of anyway to change the game speed in dosbox? it seems its getting "too much" causing it to lag. Or maybe another emulator?
  5. Right, now to start my long ass thread, I just hope this forum is still up and running, cause I'd really like to get these games to work. To start it off, Here comes my Xcom Enemy Unknown bug. The game itself works fine, or fine beeing a slight exagheration, it goes really slow in combat mode, but its not much of a problem more then an irritation factor. The real problem lies with the music, Ive tried several different versions but the music files are "dead" meaning no sound. Which is... taxing... I use the loader that circles the internet. Ideas? TFTD, Well I have a Geforce 4 graphics card, meaning the loader that I found on the net doesnt really work. It's been a while since last I tried though, as I moved to "better plains" and settled on the fact that it wasnt going to work. The graphics were just gliched and ****ed up really. Ideas? Apoc Now to my main problem. Ive installed Apoc without any problems, starting it without an emulator was a bad idea though, seeing as it just ended up with a black screen, once I klicked anything it just went dead. So in my wisdom I decided to download Dosbox to give it a go with that. And what do you know? it works? weee! Well... Kinda works, its slow.... really really really slow, I tried to fix the frame rate and cpu speed within dosbox but it just got stuck at max every time I started the game. It laggs... Badly, so badly that its not playable... Ideas? help is appriciated...
