Hi! Im into old PC strats and Heroes Of Might and Magic is one of my all time favs! Well I bought it back in July, installed it and played it fine! I was a little skeptical because of the complaints you hear about Windows XP not playing 95 games without problem. Well anyway I uninstalled the game after completing it for some space, but the other day I fancied a go. Well I tried installing it in all different ways but I keep getting the same message "C:\WINDOWSZSYSTEM32\AUTOEXEC.NT. The system file is not suitable for running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows Applications. Choose 'close' to terminate the application. I havn't got a clue what that means but I was hoping someone on here could help! I havn't changed my edition or copy of XP, I havn't changed anything on my computer since last playing it so I have no idea what it could be! Pleeeeaaaase help!!!
lol windows i quote your error "The system file is not suitable for running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows Applications" Oh Gates OK well if you say its a DOS game get a DOS like emulater http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/news.php?show_news=1 To get 95 to work on XP try this page http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/games/expert/durham_og.mspx hope it works
@Bird7 - your signature is over allowed spec, see Forum Rules in my sig and amend it asap @k2skatn - more pointless posts i see, what's funny (not) is you dragging up ancient threads to add pointless replies to
Copy and paste the game icon to your Desktop, Then go properties of it, compadability, then run for windows 95
