OK, So i'm er, a little new to this windows XP business having clung like charlton-heston to his rifle to win 98SE and now having drag-dropped my extensive DOOM directory onto the shiney new F: partition nd double clicking on eternity.exe or prboom.exe and the dos prompt flashes up for a second... running from dos basically says "failed to start the executable" or some such. Downloaded eternity straight from the web site and ran that - which flashed straight through to the exit text screen! wtf!?
some dodgy security issue i expect - there's no "permissions" options on any of the folders or files (i've used xp at work for, like, ever so i know what to expect in that regard) so i cant even check my security settings, what bizzaro config of XP have i let myself in for and how do i blat up the admin rights dammit!?
(help)
