Escape from Monkey Island (monkey4) and Win2k

el Gato

Is it possible at all to run this game when logged into Win2k using an account without Administrator (r00t) privileges? I tried and so far, no success. . . when I install the game as power-user, the installer fails to create a registry key, but copies the files and finishes the installation.

I'm running Win2k SP2 and I can't get any of the fixes mentioned for FF7 to work. When I start up the program, nothing happens until I hit enter, and then I can choose new game, and from then on absolutely nothing happens and I have to end task.

strange dos mouse behaviour in win2k

bigmaddog

I have a strange problem with my mouse in certain dos games under win2k. In about four or five of them (some run just fine), the mouse cursor appears to be confined to a rectangular portion of the screen, usually the top left, and the cursor will not move out of that area (but it will move within it).
