Win 8 Issue

Post by johnpilot »

Hello;

I have installed the original game, the upgrade, then the GS free version and that upgrade. I am running Win 8 64 bits. The game won't run unless I manually set the screen res to 1024 x 768. Also, when I run the game I can get it to work, but all the "pop up windows" are just blank white screens. When I hit the enter key, I see a flash of what the screen should look like, and then it is off. I cannot hit ESC to exit either. I am running it as an admin, and I have tried all the compatibility options from Win95 through XP SP3. All the same. I have installed all four .exe files into the same folder on my D Drive, so I am not in any Program Files folders. Any thoughts? Thanks.

You've already tried basically all the suggestions that I could provide you.
Is the game running without GS installed?

It does the same thing with the blank screen. I am going to move on to something else. Thanks for your help.
