I tried this in Win2K and it runs, but the messages are all scrambled, is anyone else getting this? Otherwise seems ok.

Runs perfectly fine for me too... sounds like you might have sound driver issues.

is that text messages or voice messages? It runs ok on my machine... i815 p3, Radeon, SB live 5.1 and win2k... One hell of a learning curve tho.

just the text messages and when trying to read scrolls and stuff. Audio works fine. Kind of hard to play though if you can't read the stuff, hehe. Works fine in 98 though. I can live with that.

What video card? Which driver?

Geforce DDR on a P3-550@733 here and B&W runs very nice under Win2K (suprisingly smooth at 800x600 even with full eye-crack).

FP, it's a Matrox G400 max with the latest win2k drivers. I'm perfectly satisfied with it in 98, so I'm not gonna mess with it right now. Or I can play it on the other box with Me and the Radeon, hehe. That one is a lot nicer to look at :P
