baggins (Guest) (0 posts) Apr-09-06, 02:39 PM (Pacific) "another one having problems running wizardry 7" Hello everybody ! I hope I will be clear, because, being French, I don't speak English very well, but I will do my possible. I'm sure that someone already had the same problem as me, and that someone has already answered him on this forum, but I recently found Wizardry 7 and can't manage to have it working : there is no sound, it is slow, and it crashes at the first encounter. My computer has a Sound Blaster AWE64 Sound Card, a 3dfx Voodoo3 graphic card and a Intel Celeron 374 MHz processor, running on Windows XP. I tried every patch I found, but none of them changes anything, and I'm a bit lost in everything I read in this forum (I can tell you I really tried before posting this), because of my lack of knowledge in the English informatical language, and even simply in computers. So, I will be VERY grateful if someone could help the ignorant I am. Good bye !   Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

There are two main ones, the DOS version called just Crusaders of the Dark Savant. And a Windows version usually referred to as Wizardry 7 Gold. Then we can go from there.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

But you should try it. Do a google search for DosBox, try it and see.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Anyway I found DosBOX but the address when I start it begins with "Z" instead of "D". In the ReadMe they tell me to "mount", but I don't understand what it means in computer language.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
