hi, try re-enabling sound accel.. WC4 had the same problem for me in win XP... cheers joe

thanks tigers claw ! i got it working, it would actaully stall after the files are deflated, i couldnt even move the mouse to do the test screen... i think switching to compatibilty mode must have done it... dunno.. anyways the game is running FLAWLESSLY now ... i'm loving it, although...

hey i got it working pretty easily... Its interesting how wc4 doesnt like sound hardware accel off, but prophecy requires it to be so... hrmm anyways... is it possibel to run wc3 on windows xp then? is there a windows patch out there for it too? what to do?? cheers joe

ahhh sorry TC !! chris - thanks for the moral support, i'll give it another go - tho i had problems with the install screen - it deflated some files then stalled at the test screen. grr cheers joe

Hi guys, need your help ! is it possible to install and play WC 4 in XP? i got the windows patch, but i'm starting to think its only possible to run it in windows 95 only ! hrmm so whats the story? anyone here able to run it in xp? also i'm thinking of installing another HDD...

true ! it had the exact same problem... its easily fixed by the solution posted here ! cheers joe

yeah true, havent tried it yet., will wait till i have some holidays damnit !!! grr how about rebellion campaign? is that still in the simulator? it said it had cutscenes, tho the files are kinda small, nothing like UE. tho i love how its a confed v confed battle.... i hate the bugs (like...

hehe, are you thinking of s3 virge? truly a line of crappy incompatible cards.. i had the good old diamond stealth card powering wc3-4 , and what a good job it did too ! cheers joe

yeah, i liked the arrow in WC3, tho for some reason i really liked the banshee even tho its lasers are weak... nice back up for the stomie tho ! god its fun wasting peeps with that thing !! cheers !

umm, i dont remember having a problem with this one.... just waste all the fighters and light her up ! BANG !

last post was me, sorry - forgot to sign in ! top job as always ! :D

hi guys... did something stoopid... i'm prolly on the 8th mission now, but i forgot the password for the sixth mission, so i cant access mission 7 fiction either... can someone post the passwords? or is it a random generator? is there a by-pass? cheers joe

yeah, thanks guys.... i just d/led the basic version, now on to the add ons... the basic installed without a hitch.. ! cheers

well about 1/4 into its install it says some crap about corruption... "unable to extract files from cabinet: may be damaged" or something... anyways, i'll try d/ling it again from a different mirror... anyone else have this problem? cheers joe

hehe, i know ! WC4 is my favorite, i already played it when it was released, borrowed it off a friend.... nothing came close since ! but now i want a copy for myself ! for posterity sake ! :o good thing it works on xp too ! :D

totally... didnt like the bug story at all.... coming after the brillance of wc4 that totally left alien races, it was a let down... the fight for control in a post kilrathi conflict universe with all the political intrigue did it for me ! :D WC4 - the best ever !

personally, i'ld liek to forget wcp ever exsited ! get back to fighting humans !! i loved WC4 cos of that... i find this whole alien race thingy a bit tiresome... the kats were alright, cos at least wc1-3 was a great build up to it, and really incited hatred for the bastards.... i say human...

ahh, thanks people, started getting sound, but then a corruption issue at around 2min, oh well... i'll just get the smaller files next time... thanks anyways... on the up side i found a copy of WC4 on ebay.com.au !! MINE DAMNIT !! cheers

hey, i downloaded the first episode, but i dont have sound.... full movie on the divx movie player, but no sound... this normal or is there some problem? cheers joe
