Afterwards, I installed Silent Hunter Commanders Edition. The game runs perfectly. My operating system is XP Pro. So for those of you that either have Windows 95 or 98 laying around, I highly recommend that you go to the Microsoft site & download Microsoft Virtual PC, as it's a free download.

Man this is just overkill to get silent hunter 1 working on windows xp.
Really, all you need to install is dosbox a meager 5MB program and then install SHI directly over it.
Job done, the game can run windowed or full screen at full speed. |
I have a delemma. I have WinXP, P3-767Mhz, 512MB RAM, SBLive soundcard and built-in video. I cannot run SHIII cause I get "no 3D" error msg. So, what about SHII? If I get the DOSBOX, it should work, right?:hmm:
