| Games People Play Games People Play is where to discuss personal computer, video game console, and arcade hardware and software - be it RPG, Sim, Strategy, Fighting, Action/Platform, or any other category. Although discussion of modern platforms/software will most likely dominate, discussion of classic videogame/computer hardware and software is always enjoyable, and certainly welcome - ESPECIALLY since there are public domain/shareware emulators of nearly every older computer/console available these days. Here's a taste of what awaits you: Nintendo-vs-Sega-vs-Sony, Console-vs-PC-vs-Mac, Hardware spec sheets/information, Industry news and discussion, Software reviews, IRC conference announcements/Reports, Emulators, Emulators, Emulators! ... and much, much more! |

 Lucas Arts Compatibility??? HELP
Lucasarts has this weird problem of its setup programs not working. For about a 3 year period they programmed all of their games directly to the dos OS, so now a bunch of their classics dont work on XP or 2000. (Like Grim Fandango, TIE fighter, etc)
Does anyone have ANY idea on how I could get for instance Star Wars Rebellion installed and working on an NT based operating system? (XP) Help would be MUCH appreciated.

Right click on the .exe file, and select properties. Click on the compatibility tag, and select win95 mode in the drop box. I had the same problem with Fallout.

If you're really going to get into DOS gaming (like I am), then you need to install DOS. Stop thinking of DOS as just something Windows uses, its a real operating system, and you really can install it.
