how do I disable my mouse? Also, I will check my mem in dos to see how much I have. Is there anything else I should try?

I dont see anything useful in autoexec.bat

Im checking the autoexec.bat now, what is base memory? And if it is higher than 571 what is the problem?

I dont think I changed the amount of ram, here is the message word for word Insufficient DOS memory available to run privateer. Consult the installation manual for help reconfiguring youe system. I have no idea where to go from here.

ah crap, new problem. I had privateer working yesterday, but now when i try to run it it says I have insufficient memory to run it. What do I do?

You got it Quarto. Im just happy it works now.

YES!!!! I got it working in a pure dos boot! Thanks for all the help guys!!!

Ok, trying it now *Crosses Fingers*

How do I go into my config.sys and where do I put that stuff? Sorry Im ignorant when it comes to computers.

Quarto, I was aware of that rule, hell ive been here for over two years now. I just didnt stop to think that what I was doing was piracy. I have been looking to get a replacement for privateer for a while, i bought it a few years ago and could never get it too work, it said some of the files...

But I mean what do I type in at C:\ prompt

Burns, unfortunately he had no choice in the matter. He was programmed to betray the confederation when Thrak said the words "Heart of the Tiger". Anyone else wonder why he was still piloting that T-Bolt in Kilrah's orbit? You'd think since he single handedly brought about the destruction...

Quarto, Im sorry, it didnt seem like it was pirated. I was just trying to help those who may not of had the game. Wedge, How did you do that, with the DOS boot? And what is the command line you type in to get it working?

But you also have to take into account that I tried running it on my Compaq which has Win 95, and I got the same error message. Has anyone else got a similar message to what I got?

FYI, I have a Dell Dimension 4100 1Ghz Pentium II and I am running Windows ME, and I have a Creative Sound Blaster Live! (WDM). I got the same error message when I tried running it on my Compaq Persario 233 mhz Pentium II. HELP!

Help, I got it all installed but when I try to run the program I get the error message "Network driver detected. Cannot switch to protected mode safely. " I dont know what that even means, i dont have the internet or anything running while I try to run that program. Can someone help me?

Anyone?

Does anyone else with the game not have the NCC-1701, etc stuff on the ships? In fact, does anyone HAVE them?
