I find it kinda annoying this place doesn't have specific-thread searching.
_I've been playing this game on and off for a few weeks with an odd, little download installation, but without any sound or music, as this Win 2000 computer has no graphic or sound card (tried the "PC speaker"; ow). However, I have finally reached→defeated Lord Xeen*, and I wanted to get the full force of the cutscenes; where I actually know what they're saying.
_I have a vista laptop now that might be able to do it, and installed the game successfully. However, when I try using the shortcut to run the game, it tells me that "This system cannot run in fullscreen mode." And the message is labeled "DOS 16 bit subsystem error".
_Is this the generic error for trying to run DOS applications on newer systems? Or is there something I can do about it?
*Severe Spoilers‼
_It was a Fun moment. I had just finished using the mirrors to go to different fountains and use spells, turning a decent level 18 party into a very powerful level 28 party, in preparation to ascend Darzog's tower and attack Lord Xeen. However, I was having a forgetful and dazed moment, where I stared at Rivercity's magic mirror thinking there was some bonus I had missed and I needed to remember how to get to it. Instead of remember the bonus or that I had already gotten it, I typed in the location I could remember I needed to go; "Lord Xeen". And well! What do you know? Lord Xeen was in possession of the Sixth Mirror, and that mirror recognized this fact. I was significantly faster than him, but only the paladin with the Xeen Slayer could do damage. 2 hits and one wounded cleric later, he was destroyed.
