Hello,

How to fix color problem for windows 64 bit? Screen15



The best suggestion I can give for now is that you try the settings as shown in my screenshot, on the .exe with which you start the game. Click on "apply" and then on "OK" after choosing these settings. Start the game and see if anything improved.

I'll leave the topic open, in case someone else has a better idea, but it's like I said (?) in one of your earlier topics: if you can't get these old games working, then you might have to accept that they don't work on a more modern operating system.

Yes, I guess that a virtual machine would be the best thing you can try, though I can't give any warranties on that. Also you need to get hold of a Windows 95/98 disc image (can't help too much with that either, since I only tested Mac OS X on a virtual machine, once, for which I have a .dmg image).

Installing old Windows versions on modern computers probably won't work, because of motherboard, CPU and/or RAM issues. For example, you probably won't find drivers that will work for your (modern) mouse, keyboard, etc., in a Windows 95/98 system. And the OS might not even run on modern CPUs...

Or you try and get hold of an old desktop computer, that still has Windows 95/98 on it.

I have windows xp cd,original but last time I use for windows repair,some file are missing

so my question
1.since this already installed at 1 computer,could I install on another place?
2.do the cd is broken already?

if you ask,why dont i play at that computer, the answer is because the windows is broken since last failed windows repair (I skip all not found files ) so not much I can do with this computer
I cannot reinstall it since there is important program there cannot deleted,and dont have CD

This is off-topic, actually. Wink  But yes, you should be able to install Windows XP on another computer, if you have the CD. 

I'll leave the topic open in case someone else has a better idea about your original problem, about this old game.
