There is absolutly no difference except that the Windows version is already patched, thus a little less buggy. But there is the very same patch for the DOS version too. I myself don't play patched because the latest patches for UFO scramble the sounds. I never found those "bugs" annoying enough to get over that. |

What are the differences between the two? (apart from the obvious dos/windows) I thought that the windows has bugs fixed where the dos one still many more? |

And you have a windows version of X-Com Then perhaps you should make DOS version the first option and the present an alternative. I don't know. Guess both of them are useful |

No problem, happy to be of some help.  I have the DOS version here on my computer. I think if I recall well I was supposed to do a review about it, but never manged to do it because of lack of inspiration and time... |

Hmm. One of txe executables ( UFO Defence ) loads but the graphcs are compleatly out of order - screen flickers, so it's quite useless and the other one is the one that I am running the game with and complaining that crashes. Yes, there is a bug somewere, I guess the problem is in the compatibility betweeen graphic/video aplications in the system and the game itself, not sure because I don't have the expertise about this so I dont know. Anyhow I've downloaded the dos version of X-Com from another site as you suggested me and it works fine in DOSbox ( thanks Eagle of Fire ). And regarding the previous post Quote:
Thanks again fellows and sorry if I bothered you |

Yeah, I run the DOS version on DOSBox and have no problems Though I also don't get any problems with the Windows version, guess I'm just lucky :P |

| Rogue | I know I asked this question many times, but can our version on the site be replaced with DOS version??? | |

| PrejudiceSucks | It does. One of the .exes works perfectly. Bugs were just a huge pain in the arse from the start of UFO : Enemy Unknown. | |
