Space Quest Collection Series Installation problem

Post by pppp » Thu Sep 15, 2011 4:48 pm

OK so i used the installer for this collection to set up all 7 games plus the sq6 demo and i encountered 2 problems:

-SQ6 gave me a "Can't find DACBLAST.DRV" error. Fortunately all i had to do was copy and paste all the missing files from the cd.

-The SQ6 demo folder only had like 7 files(no SIERRA.EXE for example) so i had to get the rest from SpaceQuest.net

My problems are solved but of course i thought i'd have to tell this. ;)

If necessary i'll reinstall and give the diagnostic logs.

You were trying to install with the wrong installer, weren't you?
