Yeesh.

Assuming you're trying to tell us that the demo won't work, you should tell us which operating system you are using and whether you have yet tried to use Win95 compatibility. If you're using WinXP then you may be out of luck.

wow you cen reeed my spelling?!?!?! Jk lol i ave windows 2000

Slaveless 05-13-2006 08:17 AM

Usually, Windows 2000 does not operate AE or AO. Press the Compatibilty Mode when installing, and go to http://support.mircosoft.com/default...b;en-us;279792 to learn more.

And we really just have to guess what you are saying.

I have both AE and AO on Windows XP and they both work fine, so why did you post that it doesn't work on XP eh?

Havoc 06-04-2006 05:17 AM

The demo of AO... hm. It should just work on XP. But if you get an error, it might be a compatibility issue. Try re-installing it under 95 compatibility.

Just because it works for YOU on XP, doesn't mean it will work for everybody. Many people have had problems with running the games on XP and we are yet to find a reason why or an adequate solution.

I ordered Abe's Exoddus for the PC ^-^ WOOT
the Exoddus, try searching the internet for a Patch or something, that might help with your problem.

Spirrow 06-06-2006 02:54 PM

I have a WindowsXP and AE works okay in some parts. I
can't play AO at all on it.

You missed an apostrophe.

You're a turd. :rolleyes:

Mutual Friend 06-06-2006 06:44 PM

Oh. Okay.

Jordan 06-06-2006 10:43 PM

lmao turd!! Poor you Sprirrow, get a Windows Xp patch, there must be one somewhere!

Spirrow 06-07-2006 03:06 AM

Uh, I don't know what you mean by patch, but my family's
XP was bought in the store(and it works fine). Furthermore,
I can use another computer, a Windows98 to my own advantages for almost a whole year.

Jordan 06-07-2006 04:32 AM

A patch means a fix for Abe's Oddysee and it makes it work for Windows XP

Nate 06-07-2006 06:07 AM

OWI have never put out a patch for winXP. I have a vague memory of a third-party patch that didn't really work very well but I could be thinking of another game.

Jordan 06-07-2006 06:23 AM

Well ppl I finally got Abe's Exoddus for the PC!! I am a very happy bunny :) :)
Erm anyway the Exoddus try searching troubleshooting for your problem, it may help a bit

magic9mushroom 06-13-2006 08:54 PM

I play AO on XP and it is fine

the Exoddus 06-17-2006 11:46 AM

ok

skillya_glowi 06-18-2006 01:06 PM

It actually depends on how fast your processor is. So that the demo will work, that is.
