I've had this problem with older games either on disc or floppy. I found instructions on the 'readme' file of one that works for all. Apparently you need MS-Dos for older games, but still need to temporarily change the memory settings. To do this from Win98, click MyComp (normally top left on Desktop), right click 'D' drive and access settings. Choose 'extras' then 'fixmem' and able this either by selecting yes or choosing a number. Restart the computer and then restart again in MS-Dos. Then cd.. and then whatever the directory was called on installing. After playing it must be undone by choosing MyComp, 'D' drive and extras as before, but then select 'undo' in the list and fully restart again. Its a very long process but worth it for great oldies. If there are still problems it could be that the wrong sound card has been detected. to change this for the game only, click 'Start' bottom left, 'run' and type 'C
<filename>\install.exe<ENT>' and use the arrow keys to find sound and ammend. I couldn't find the right sound settings but one of the options allows most games to run, but with bad or no sound. Hope that helps, 5miles.
