Full throttle on XP

Hello there, I’m wondering if any of you have managed to run that LucaArts classic on Windows XP. Unfortunately I can’t be able too (I know why), I just don’t know any files that’ll be abe to run this on Windows XP (Why on earth did they take out TRUEDOS?)

Anyway any help will be greatly apprecitaed, thanks.

I haven’t been able to run any trueDOS games…My brother the first Need for Speed some years ago and it won’t play at all.

I suppose you could always get a DOS emulator, I run my DOS based games off of it.

Full throttle runs on my Windows XP machine just fine.

I can’t be bothered to mess with it right now, because my computer is very unstable at the moment, but I will try to get you the settings and stuff I have mine at as soon as possible.

Alright cheers guys. I’ve got this program called ‘SCUMM’……but I’ve somehow manged to loose my FT disk. SO my friend Kyle is dropping off his version tomorrow. So you may want to hold on until I give an update of my status tomorrow.

But thank you for your help you three (Loki, I was hoping you may reply to this little SOS of mine)

I’ll update this reply tomorrow. If alls good, then I’m guessing this can be closed, if not. More replies would be great (and I’ll be eagerly awaiting your specs report Loki…that sounds sooo formal, lol)

Alright I wind this down, now. Thanks again.

UPDATE: Okay here it is; I can’t install it because it doesn’t give me a cursor to use, and the keyboard arrow buttons don’t seem to have an effect. So basically I can’t click on the button that says ‘Install’. So because of this I can’t use SCUMM. So some more help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers.

UPDATE 2: I’ve managed to make FT work now (SCUMM is working now). So this thread can now be closed. Thanks again for the help. 🙂
