Digging up this old topic and some others on the same subject because I just went to Win2k over the weekend and have lost use of my favorite game, TIE Fighter. XW and XWA are working wonderfully for me. But TF is not working at all. I tried the DOS CD version, but it won't install sound. And when I try to run the game it gives me some junk about no VESA support and won't start.
As for TIE95, the program installed fine, but it won't run. It gives an erorr (c0000something or other), and that's it. I have the compatability tools with the new QFixApp program that should be able to make it run under Win2k. But I have no idea which one of those 70 or so boxes might be the one. Anyone out there have any ideas?
