issues with Sid Meirs Civil War games on XP? - PanzerGeneral - 02-13-2007 I have loaded 3 different Sid Meirs Civil War games made by Sierra to computer with XP. Is there any patchs to make them run on a XP machine and web site link? RE: issues with Sid Meirs Civil War games on XP? - Thunder - 02-13-2007 I sent you a web site that has the patch. Good Luck Thunder Ladder Custodian RE: issues with Sid Meirs Civil War games on XP? - Tanker - 03-04-2007 Could you forward the same info to me please? Thanks. RE: issues with Sid Meirs Civil War games on XP? - Thunder - 03-05-2007 Please send me an email that I can reply to and I will get it to you right away. Thanks Thunder RE: issues with Sid Meirs Civil War games on XP? - Tanker - 03-05-2007 Thunder, I've found the XP patch at the Firaxis website but now I have a more perplexing problem. When I try to install Sid Meier's Gettysburg on my XP machine I get the following error message: "autolee.exe-entry point not found. The procedure entry point UnMapLS could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL.32.dll." This occurs whether I let the cd auto-run or try to access the cd manually through My Computer. It only happens with this game. I can install other Win 95 games (including other Firaxis games) with no problems. I would think if something was wrong with KERNEL.32.dll it would show up when trying to install these games also. RE: issues with Sid Meirs Civil War games on XP? - Thunder - 03-05-2007 WOW, now you are beyond my knowledge since what you tried has not worked. I woudl recommend posting on the technical issues site and hope a computer guru knows an answer.... Good Luck Thunder RE: issues with Sid Meirs Civil War games on XP? - Tanker - 03-05-2007 I solved the problem by using ...start/run/cmd, then changed directories to the cd drive and ran the setup.exe from there. Works great now! Lot of monkey business for XP. I can imagine what Vista will do to our old favorites. |
