Gk3 & Xp a wierd discovery

Post by Fender_178 » Mon Nov 10, 2008 8:22 pm

While trying to get GK3 running under xp. One would think that 95/98 Compatibility mode would work but not for me it refused to recognize that disc 1 was in my virtual cd rom drive. But while running it under win2000 compatibility mode it worked. I wonder if any one could explain this.

Are the drive letters non-sequential?
01000010 01111001 01110100 01100101 00100000 01101101 01100101 00100001

Not sure what might be going on.

On another Adventure game forum they were puzzled/ not sure why it is working this way.
