Ok guys thanks to your help Ive got past the scrambled graphics problem. And another problem since where my game wouldnt save. Turns out I had to go into the Xcom folder and create folders for the save games called Game_1 and so on.
But as luck would have it, or maybe its some other higher being out there who just doesnt want me to play Xcom ever again, Ive run into yep you guessed it problem number 3.
The game crashes every time I start a mission. Ive tried several times and with the same results. Ive tried new saves which hasnt worked. Ive also tried running the program under win 95 compatibility, and turning down my hardware accelerator. I also read about looking for I forget the exact name, but some diag.exe file on my comp and turning that off, but apparently I dont have that file. And I also heard about deleting a miss.bat file in Xcom, but I cant find that either. Maybe that was just a Dos version thing.
Anyway Im out of ideas. And I am sorry for being a pest here, I just love Xcom and really want to play it again. Anyone have any ideas?
