Hello and thanks for the great site and forum, a wonderful resource.
I am slowly working through the WC series, and am now at Privateer 2 Deluxe,
which I have the CD's for, and just tonight loaded for the first time. I did get the
openning movies, etc. and into the story, BUT it keeps freezing after about
the time I pick the first ship and cargo, and usually in the PUD screen.
I have a Winidows 98 SE OS, with a Pentium III Coppermine 1.1 Ghz 40 GB Hard
Drive 512 RAM, Audigy 2Z S snd crd, Geforce FX 5500 256 RAM Vid Card,
and thought that this version of P2 would run on Windows 98 SE?...
Should I try slowing down the acelleration of the vid or sound cards? Is there
a patch or fix that I need does anyone know? I really like the look of the game
so far, but need some help of someone has suggestions. I am setting up a
newer system but expect then to have to do DOS box, etc.....so I would like to try to get this system, the 98SE to run it of possible.
I also have WCI, WC2, WC Armada, WC Academy, WC Privateeer I, the Kilrathi Saga, and hope to find WC III and IV sometime soon.
Thanks again for any suggestions possible....and sorry if I missed posts on this
in other threads, I looked but did not see any about this particular problem...
thanks
