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.

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?

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.

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.

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

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.

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