Desperate need of 7th Guest and 11th hour patch

bgmagic

I am in desperate need of the 7th Guest and 11th Hour patch that trilobyte released a while ago. I see links to it all over the place but being that trilobyte is out of business, all the links are broken.

Jedi Knight: Mysteries of the Sith in Win2000

Rogue Jedi X

Hi! I have MotS on my disk, but I don't think it's working properly. My first problem was, when I tried to run MotS via the Launcher. Immediately it told me I need DirectX5, although the original Jedi Knight works just fine with DX 8.

Neverwinter Nights

ethuwet

I have a problem with playing Neverwinter Nights. I'm thinking that my Video Card is not compatible with the minimum requirements. I have a Matrox Millenium G450 and would like to know if that meets the TNT2 requirement listed on the Bioware websites.

Grand Theft Auto 3

Just picked this up and there seems to be an issue with Windows XP and Nvidia Cards. In game menu is all garbled. Found the fix here: Game kicks *** tho. Glad I waited for the PC version.

Silver by Infogrames

jpstracke

Hi Folks I checked your compatibility list to find out about Silver (Infogrames). It says that it works fine in Windows XP. I own Win XP Pro (By the way, where can I get the exact build number information from ?) and I tried installing the game.

Anybody give SOF 2 a spin yet?

pmistry

Anybody give SOF 2 a spin yet? I've been fiddling with the demo, mine has no gore, seems like a wild gunfight type FPS which isn't so bad, sometimes less thinking and more problem solving with guns is better.

Old Win95 games

mulqvist

I'm having trouble installing older W95 games, specifically Magic: The Gathering in this case. When I run setup it says the program can only be installed on Windows 95 and ends the setup. I've tried using apcompat.

Mouse acceleration problems in CS

nobleknight

I have some mouse acceleration problems when I am playing CS. In windows everything feels alright but when I am playing Counterstrike then the mouse acceleration seems weird. I can move the mouse slowly from a to b and that is one whole turn in cs, but if I move the mouse fast then I can turn around about 3 times.
