Leon 55 Report post Posted November 17, 2008 Okay, I did some searching, and found a fix for it. Unorthodox, but it works! Set it to run under XP service pack 2, then run as admin (do the same for the 'Game.exe' in the System folder after the app executable). After that, the Enterbrain folder containing everything must be on the desktop, and you must run it from there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Leon 55 Report post Posted November 17, 2008 Well, you see, my XP laptop is on it's last leg. Screen has a short. 2/3 USB ports are dead (with the 3rd about dead.) Power button broke (gotta 'jumpstart' it.) 35/39.4GB filled. It is also 5 years old (which is a miracle.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nisage 31 Report post Posted November 17, 2008 I used to have a Vista laptop, I managed to get RMXP to work finally. I'm unable to show you since the laptop is broken now :( (As soon as I get RMXP to work, it breaks. Just my luck huh?) But I looked again on youtube for the videos that helped me get RMXP to work. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=OwhHVTqIVtY http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=zrj3n6vVfgc I lost a few youtube video links, but here are two. Hope they help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nisage 31 Report post Posted November 17, 2008 Your welcome, glad to hear it's fixed. If you have the same problem again, you can use the links. Yeah this site is friendly. Someone did post once that this is a friendly site, that people here don't, quote, "bash on the noobies like on some other sites", unquote (or something close to that). can't wait for the suprises.
