Command Aces of the Deep install probs on XP
As stated, I'm pulling my hair out, I am no cimputer expert, but i have done tons of research on this subject.
I have installed and run DOSBox and D-Fend, yada yada, im there. I've "mounted" my cd-rom drive(E)(and created a folder in MyDocuments), but do not know the EXACT COMMAND to get it to run. I used to play this when i was younger, had a yearning, bought it off amazon, and have been extremely disapointed so far. when i type: E:\"AODCD.EXE" it responds- this program must be run under Win32 please someone help me, i wanna sink some boats |

If I remember well, Command Aces of the Deep is for windows only, not for DOS.
Try setting your desktop color to 256 and then run the game as a normal windows program.

what i suppose i should ask next is,
what aspects(and how) do i change to get xp setup like 98? i am about to try to run some discarded computer with win98 sticker on the front, hopefully it doesnt have viruses... thanks for the help it means the world to me to have this game operational. any pointers in the path of righteousneess would be greatly appriciated. (edit) that computer was for sure discarded for a reason...sux Last edited by bigpanda16; 02-28-08 at 11:29 PM. |
