HenryHay

Hi, Used to enjoy this game several years ago - it came with a Win95 Micron computer, but now can't get it to run on my XP Pro machine, even using compatibility mode. I searched the site and did find a reference to setwin95.

I'm trying to play Master of Orion 2 on Windows XP but after playing for a while most of the graphics go black. Even if I save and restart the game it still goes black. I've read other posts about this problem on other OS's but I've never seen a solution.
