Well...

(Moved to the appropriate forum) Domingu, Your problem is quite easily solved. Enable "Autostart" on the CD drive you wish to put the Interstate '76 disk in. Insert the disk, close the drive and when the game starts, it will either ask you to Install the game or Play the game. If it asks y...

<INSERT TIMEWARP HERE> **** He tapped lightly on the drivers window of the black sedan. The tinted glass rolled down with the quiet whir of an electric motor. As the driver looked up at the person at his window he realized he had made a mistake. Before he could react there were two .45's blazing in...

Uh...

You're either running the native XP (or aftermarket) firewall that needs to be disabled or a hardware router, like commonly used for DSL or cable...

Check these things and let us know.

If you're behind a hardware router, see if there's a DMZ (read: public IP address) that you use and go from there.

OK...

That's a prickly pear, Alice... For starters, you're going to have to keep trying the installation until it finally works. It could take you up to 30 tries but eventually, it will install. After you get it installed, you're going to need to enable compatibility mode. There's a tread here somewhere w...

Uh...

NOWHERE in my instructions does it say "reinstall the game"...

READ, UNDERSTAND and FOLLOW my instructions as they are written and then REREAD the XP FAQ thread if you're still having problems...

Uh...

Make a copy of your installation folder and then uninstall the original.

Make a link to the EXE file in the copied directory and change compatibility mode to Win 98.

You can NOT play in 3D mode...

Chapter 8

Chapter 8 **** Within the warm, moldy folds of the horse blanket the fly larvae hatched and began their feast. **** This is where the first part of the story ends. There are a few disjointed semi-chapters written and most of the ending is complete but I probably won't have time to get to finishing i...

Chapter 7 **** The first thing that struck him when he pushed himself up the side of the stall was the old oat bucket, still half full, hanging from the side of the stall. "Food", it, seems was covered for a day or two. Smiling at the fact that the oats hadn't spilled out or fallen on the ...

Chapter 6 **** The sun was setting on Christmas Day when he came back to consciousness. Unlike the last few times he had came to, he was fully lucid this time around.

OK, I'll post up to where I stopped over the next few days...the hippie "scene" may be toned down a bit from the BETA you were told about but it still should be kind of fun...or not.

Well...

It doesn't look to me like this forum is getting the draw or appreciation that it needs to be public (or viable) so any of you reading and not commenting on the stories should probably start. I've only got a few more of the first chapters of OOL written and I'm not going to bother to tie them all to...

Chapter 4 **** The sun was setting as he came back to consciousness. He was leaning at the door of the barn when his eyes refocused on where he had been. He could see his footfalls in the snow and where he had dragged his dead left leg along with him. His Dover sat cool and motionless in the distanc...

Chapter 3 **** Rolling on to his right side had taken the better part of the day. It had started to snow again but this time it brought a bitter wind. He was not as cold as he would have expected. Perhaps it was the lack of blood in his body or the lack of life in his bones. Either way he thought it...
