no such luck yet. ive read into getting sound blaster's emulation to work and i found out that some motherboards need to have the plug and play turned off. pretty much what you said. my bios dosnt have any options like that but you know how confusing some computers bios's are. i have a...

thank you thank you thank you! ive been trying to get my privateer to run for almost 2 weeks solid. your boot disk has made my system finally accept this game. my sound isnt working but at least it ran! i have a sound blaster live and i tried your settings as much as i could and it said i...

to tmo11: i dont think that my problem is the sound or sound related because ive tried to get privateer just to run without sound and with sound card even in my computer and it gives me the same blinking cursor that i get when im playing around with sound drivers now. you can at least run your...

ok ive tinkered since the last post. ive added the comma to the stacks and it dosnt give me an error now. ive downloaded a generic oakcdrom.sys driver for my cdroms(my last posts were wrong as far as the cd-rom driver). now my cd-roms boot up just fine still leaving me with the same amount of...

damm! i switch over to 98 and still cant play:( !! ok heres what my boot disk has so far... autoexec.bat @echo off set path=c:\windows;c:\windows\command set tmp=c:\windows\temp set temp=c:\windows\temp set prompt= $p$g rem loadhigh=c:\windows\command\mscdex.exe /d:sscd000...

thanks preacher for if it hadn't been for your willingness to help, i wouldn't have switched over to 98.

just wanted all of you to know that i no longer use winME!! im now a very happy win98 user. *thank you, thank you*:D anyways, after i install all of the needed software that i had lost during the change over, im going to work on my privateer game and see if it will run.

well to tell you the truth, i dont care about the warranty. if something goes wrong, then ill handle it. i do know my way around inside, just not around the startup procedures as in autoexec.bat and config.sys. ive already opened her up and put a voodoo5, more memory, and a dvd-rom. trust me...

the only real reason i wanted to hold onto winME is just for the fact that it came with some nifty system recovery CD's that help undo the damages winME comes up with every so often. if for some ungodly reason, i want to go back to winME after i dump it and go with win98, can i? if so then i...
