![]() That is, if you have multiple drives named D and E, you have to use the CD in drive D. Some old CD-ROM programs insist that the CD be placed in the first CD-ROM drive. So if someone on this forum would like a challenge, perhaps they will find this information useful ? Reply 5 of 12, by Jorpho Oddly the CD does run the repair install program, but it makes absolutely no difference when you try to run it again.īeing very non technical, I'm now stumped. If the 8-bit version is run in W95/98 compatibility modes then I get a rather snotty message "do not pirate games!" I thought this could be because it can't see the CD from the hard disk, so tried running the program from the CD and received the old "not a valid Win32 application" error. I mean nothing: don't know where the program disappears to, but I don't even get an error message. ![]() If the 16-bit version is run in W95/98 compatibility modes then nothing happens at all. If run 'normally' in XP, I get the message "not a valid Win32 application". The system requirements are: Pentium 90 or higher with 16MB Ram (32MB recommended), MS compatible mouse, CD-Rom (quad speed or higher), Win95, DX5 or higher, 1MB Video Ram or higher, screen resolution 800圆00 or more. It installs 2 versions: an 8-bit version and a 16-bit version. It won't install under DosBox as you found.Īlthough it installed under XP, it wouldn't play, so I thought I'd post the results here in case anyone else has found a workaround. I tried a complete install on XP but could not track down any patches. I don't have Win7, but still use XP Pro SP3. Possibly not as it was published by a different company, Microprose? It does list Grand Prix Manager 2 (1996) as being another game by Mr.Grabowski, but I don't have this one and so can't tell whether the same problem occurs with this. The website address has long been taken over by another company, nothing to do with games software and there doesn't seem to be any support on Empire Interactive where the title is listed as "War Along the Mohawk". The manual states it was published in 1998 by Empire Interactive ( ) with the game copyright Edward Grabowski Communication Ltd. I don't know if you bought a new CD or a complete pack with the manual. Tankred, I also remember Fields of Fire: War Along the Mohawk. ![]() This is a great forum - I had no idea so many people like me still prefer to play these old games. ![]()
