Bad n00b. You haven't read the stickies. Should have checked the oldwarez list first.

Interplay = ESA = NO GO.

I think he already has the game and tries to make it work under XP.

Do you get any error messages when you try to run the game? Does the game start but hang at a certain point or does it even refuse to start? Please give some more info about your problem.

It should work in DosBOX but there are issues

Playable for Windows but not for Mac (2005-12-13 07:46)* Monos_Lycos I am running an IBM R40E Thinkpad using Windows XP. The setup requires a little playing around but I was able to get it to run. However, scrolling across the map is a little choppy and so too is the sound. On my Macintosh G4 powerbook, I have tried time and again but cannot get the game to play. It constantly crashes on initial startup.[/quote]

M.A.X. Should run perfectly on WinXP by just right-clicking the shortcut and running the game with "Windows 95" compatibility.

Why even bring up Dosbox for this game? It functions great with the above mentioned.

What is XP ? Can you get that legally for free ?
I don't have it. And i don't intend to spend more than 100 dollars on something that only controls my hardware. (and takes a lot of resources for doing such a task.)

Therefore I'm glad to know if the game would work in DOSBox.
