Re: Nemesis/XP: On start screen goes dark, then nothing
Thanks a lot for your help. I suppose I could have found that myself... Anyway please find attached a modified nemesis.zix based on medium.zix that works for me (at least I can start the game, make some moves, save and restore).

Re: Nemesis/XP: On start screen goes dark, then nothing
Would be really great if you could do that. The link I posted before shows modified headers for the 3CD version and the DVD version and they look different.

Nemesis/XP: On start screen goes dark, then nothing
Hi, I am trying to get Zork Nemesis to work on WinXP SP3. As the normal install doesn't work (fatal dialog box error early on in the process) I followed the instructions given for a manual install, but when I start znemesis.exe the screen just goes dark completely, the hourglass comes on and after I...
