Tech & Research / Lemmings 2 & 3 on Windows 98
« on: July 10, 2004, 06:29:20 PM »
I have an old PC with Windows 98. I'm trying to get Lemmings 2 and 3 to run. Here are my situations.
Lemmings 2: I exit to DOS from Win98, and try to run L2. It freezes when it tells me how much memory I have. Either way, my optical mouse doesn't work under DOS. I can't use DOSbox because my PC is only 450 mhz,which means it would be REALLY slow, but I know from another computer that L2 will run that way. It also freezes when running inside Win98.
Lemmings 3/Chronicles/All New World of Lemmings: Won't even start in DOS or Win98. Gives me Runtime Error, but not on the Windows 3.11/DOS 6.22 PC I used to have, so I don't have a corrupt copy. DOSbox won't go either. The Lems drown in midair.
Anyone know a patch/fix/configuration that will get these to run?
