I am trying to play simon 2 on w2k, I can get it to install and play using
vdms. But here is the problem, Everytime I hit certain areas of the game I
crash back to windows... It is driving me mad, as I am just starting to
enjoy the game and ...bang gone. The washing ladies is a good example. Any
ideas anyone...please
Thanks
Linda

Try ScummVM instead. It can run Simon games as well as LucasArts ones.
