Viper Racing

Recommended Posts

I read the info on this web page on how to get Viper Racing to work with 2000, but the setwin95.cmd doesn't work for me. Anybody get it to work and want to share their wealth of knowledge ?????!!!!

 

This is what happens...

 

d:\sierra\viper racing\setwin95.cmd viper racing.exe

 

marking viper executable so it thinks it is running on Windows 95

 

imagecfg: unable to map and load viper.

 

 

help !!!!

Hi there,

actually I don´t know why you´re using setwin95, when you could use apcompat.exe (you can find that tool on the W2K-CD).

Run apcompat.exe, checkmark NT5, and link the autoplay.exe of the Viper-CD to be run. The Viper Racing start´up screen appears, then click play and have fun!

 

(FYI: The same procedure works for Microprose´s EAW, too)

If you are having troubles playing the multiplayer version on windows 2000. Do this:

 

1. Create a shortcut to 'Viper Racing.exe'

 

2. Goto the properties of the shortcut and add -nocanary to the end of the shortcut

 

3. This will let you run it FULLY under windows 2000!!!

 

Hope this helps!
