Hi thanks for the help everyone. I found the modding utility that let me update to Catalyst 7.9, and the update worked fine. However, the OpenGL patch still has the same problem. My Glide wrapper is working better than ever (before it wouldn't let me go into highres, but now it will), but the...

Thanks for the reply! I went to the ati website to download the latest catalyst drivers, and after choosing Vista and the Mobility Radeon X1400, I was sent to a page telling me that ATI no longer supports this card, and that the newer versions of the drivers are meant for desktop cards. (I...

Hi, not sure if this is the appropriate place to get an answer - but I'm having the exact same slowdown problem on the newly released Prophecy in-game update with the visual enhancements. I'm using a Vista machine, Core 2 Duo, 2 GHz, 2GB RAM, ATI Mobility Radeon X1400 - ~1GB video RAM. The...

Hi, so I'm trying to use this patch in Prophecy on my Vista computer, and the resolution and graphical updates definitely work, but the game takes a horrific dive in framerate. I've tried changing the OpenGL settings to the lowest possible resolution, turning off FSAA and running in Windowed...

Yep, data, gf, gf2, and gf2.tre are all in the patch folder. I tried Win95, 98, and XP compatibility modes on the patch installer, and I still get the same error message each time. I used Win95 compatibility on the game installer, if that makes a difference.

Hello all, I'm looking to play WCP on my new Vista laptop, using the various patches that have been made. I can successfully use the Glide wrapper to get the extra visual effects. But, whenever I try to install the highres patch, the program crashes with the error message "install_gui MFC...

yes, that's what I thought as well, but I recently tried the game out on a friend's computer running xp, and the game works perfectly--therefore the files aren't corrupted. I noticed while I was playing on the xp machine that the video undergoes a slight flicker at the points when it tends to...

Yup, that's exactly the same checksum of movies.tre I get. Must be somewhere else. Maybe I could get the checksum of other important files and post them here to compare to yours? I don't know that much about which files are the important ones, so maybe you can suggest some? It seems to me the...

Hello, Sorry for the long delay. I've now tried all the different command line switches in different combinations. I've also changed vista settings to get rid of all the fancy visual themes before running the game. The results: definitely my sound card is not to blame--the no sound switch has no...

Something else I've noticed after skipping through the Hobbes video: Except for the "getting in the fighter video" the other crashes seem random. Sometimes, a video will crash one time I try to watch it; when I restart and try and watch the same video again, it will play normally. This leads me...

I just spent some time googling; and it turns out that Microsoft got rid of hardware audio acceleration in Vista. I unfortunately don't have the original CDs with me--I left them in storage a while back, thinking that the isos I kept on my external hard drive would be good enough. Any other...

That can't be it; since I made iso images of my discs a while back, and am running the game using these images mounted through Daemon Tools. Perhaps it's an issue with that program?

Hi, I've recently installed the kilrathi saga on my new vista home premium computer, and just finished playing WC1 and WC2, and am trying to start WC3. I didn't have any real problems with the first two games, but WC3 crashes before the first mission starts. I can watch all the videos of the...

i'm running this on a dell inspiron 8200, with windows XP, 1.4 ghz, pentium 4 mobile, 256 mb ram, and a video card with 32MB memory. I haven't played WC3 on it very much, i've mostly used it for final fantasy and the like. For those games, I get a lot of slowdown for loading, I'd anticipate the...

Hello everyone My first experience with WC was way back when WC4 came out for the playstation. I bought it because I thought it looked cool, plus it had the clockwork orange guy (McDowell). I ended up buying WC4 for the PC later, as well as WCIII for the PSX. Now, I have a nice, new computer...

I am using an NTFS file system.

Also, I'm using the MS Sidewinder Precision Pro joystick. Origin tells me that DOS doesn't support digital joysticks like it. If that's true I need to get the game to run in a window. It works fine in pure DOS, has music, speech, everything, but no joystick.

What does DOSkey do? I have no idea. It came like that I guess. And the files i gave there were from a DOS window, not pure DOS.

How do I enable the DOS sound card drivers?

All the files are already not read-only. The experts have already told me I can't do anything. I want to use my joystick, so I need it to run in Windows, but Origin Tech Supp keeps saying the game won't support it no matter what. Here's the mem/c/p stuff. Modules using memory below 1 MB...
