*work work work* K finally get to try DosBox. I've managed to mount the CD-Rom the game is in, and get through the CD scan lock up to the part where I select drive to install...problem is I can't figure out how to get it to see my C:\ drive which has several gigs free.. Every drive it sees is either 105 megs free or zero. I'll keep working on it.
I have X-Com Collector's Edition and always just played UFO...since finding this forum I decided to try TFTD and Apocalypse. TFTD I got working fine, but Apocalypse, no. First I installed it to my C drive and it didn't work...tried a few things, gave up. Then I find this "XP fix" and decide to try again. But now it wont install because it hangs up on the "checking CD-ROM speed" screen. This all happened over the course of today. Any clues? ;_;
