Battle Chess 1 and 2 Compatibility Problem

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.games (More info?)

Hi,

I was wondering if someone could help me. I recently brought a copy of
Battle Chess 1 and 2. The problem is, is that no matter what compatibility
mode i try and run it in it won't work. I keep getting an error message about
ms-dos. If any body knows how i can fix it or get it to work please help.

Thank-you for your time

Hi Turtle Girl,

If this isn't the solution, could you type out the error message please?

Here's an easy method to solve that error:
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_m.htm#16bit

If that doesn't correct the issue, try this manual method:

1. Browse to C:\WINDOWS\repair
Right-Click and Copy the file named: autoexec.nt *

2. Browse to C:\WINDOWS\System32
Right-Click in that window to Paste the file
(Answer yes if prompted to replace existing file)


* Note: If the file autoexec.nt doesn't exist on your system
right click the link below and select the "Save Target As.."
option to save the file in C:\WINDOWS\System32
