Hopkins FBI help please

How'd you manage 98/2k windows appearance then? From turning Visual Effects off I presume?

 

When you said you "re-installed" it, I assume it was already installed on this Windows installation?

I'd suggest uninstalling it, deleting the VDMSound folder and going through your registry with REGEDIT looking for any entries that pertain to VDMSound.

Then reinstall.

 

Ok thanks, will post results soon.

 

Basic question here but I've learned that simple solutions are often overlooked.

As for the 'Run with VDMSOUND' option in the context menu, did you reboot? Most often a reboot is required to add an item to the context menu since they tie in with the registry.

Also, have you tried executing the program using Windows 95 compatibility mode?

EDIT- Also here's a thread with the same problem/ game as you: http://www.adventuregamers.com/forums/arch...x.php/t-13.html

Posted by Twiki in that thread. Too long for me to read but maybe an answer in there. EXACT issue. And they did try compat. mode too.

Also a google search reveals lots of issues running on XP. Tried this patch yet? http://hopkinsfbi.com/patches_win.htm

Here's my google: getting Hopkins FBI xp
