Zephiris 0 Posted October 27, 2005 I have the same problem with Windows 2003 (effectively the same as WinXP). I apply Windows 95 compatibility mode, but it still says it needs Windows 95. The compatibility mode appears not to apply, and I don't know why. I hope someone else knows how to solve this. Share this post Link to post
Hepharade 0 Posted November 20, 2005 Well, Just apply the compability mode on the "Setup.exe" and "Launch.exe" files and run the "setup.exe". When the red screen appear, click "alt + f4" and install the game. I'd like to ask for your help too... I installed and played the game correctly, but, when it's running, there's just no sound! I'm not fluent in english, but I know that it's very much easy to understand the conversations when there's a conversation... Share this post Link to post
aartaxerxes 0 Posted November 21, 2005 This is an interesting thread, I just dug out my resident evil cd and have managed to install it using compatiblity mode in windows 2000 sp4. However there is a choice of long obsolete graphics cards to choose from when installing. I just picked one (orchid righteous I think - I used to have one!) Now the game refuses to start. I see the '3dfx' and 'virgin interactive' logos but then the program freezes in a blank screen, after a while I get a message that it failed to display video. Any ideas? Would love to get this working. AartaXerXes Edit: Forget the above, I tried Matrox Mistique in Launch.exe options and it worked. but I too have no sound! Share this post Link to post
marmaja 0 Posted December 9, 2005 This is a funny issue, because I can play it with sound, I just picked any of the 3Dfx cards "BUT" when I play with Jill, after you kill the first zombie and u run back to the guy and the guy kills the zombie "again" they talk and it freezes... but I think noone has a real answer to these problems Share this post Link to post
