I'm running this through D-Fend Reloaded, and I can hear the sounds but I can't see any picture? I'm running 64-bit Windows 7.

#4483 I'm not sure which game you are thinking of, but this game is part of the Super Solver's franchise, all of which I believe use the same character.
Bigthan added this comment :
I got it working great using a DOS emulator, DOSBOX. It's free and if you look up the "Setup and Installation of DOSBox" instructions it's pretty simple to setup and use.

When I try to install, an error message reads that my computer settings are incompatible... what to do? And yeah I did take the files out of the zip folder but ugh I don't understand computers. Thanks in advance if anyone ever reads this.
hmm added this comment :
does anybody remember the game before this one with the same character? In that one you went around to ancient tombs.

I remember this game from when I was a kid. We only had one copy and we would fight over who got to play it.

Hiro added this comment :
Tried right clicking the setup.exe and running it under windows xp and even windows 95 compatibility. Nothing.
Nadia added this comment :
When I opened the downloaded file and extracted it with WinRar, it gave me a lot of different things. What do I click on to make it run?
admin added this comment :
This is a windows application, you need to run the setup from windows. Works very well of Windows XP !
Reba added this comment :
I keep getting the "Given folder does not have an executable file" message when I try to load the unzipped folder into my D-Fend reloaded. Is there something I'm missing, here? This is the only game I've had trouble with so far.
Rianna added this comment :
Ah, I was trying to get it to run on windows 7 64 bit, but I have an old xp box and it works fine on that. Thanks for the help!
admin added this comment :
Just ran this on a windows XP computer, installation went fine.
What you should do though is :
Right click on the program (or shortcut, or setup if it doesn't work) and set compatibility mode to windows 95, or the oldest you can get.
Rianna added this comment :
I've just downloaded the files, and although there is a setup file, there doesn't appear to be a program file. When I extracted the files, it gave a message about there being an encryption problem. I haven't had this problem with any other games. Anyone know what the problem could be? Thanks!

Will this be able to run with DOSBox *with* sound? I already have a program but I'm unable to get any audio with the game :(
admin added this comment :
Hi Dela, this is a windows application and you won't be able to play it on a mac without an additionnal software.
You will have to install it on a windows machine or install on your mac a software like CrossOver.
