LordDougy Posted January 15, 2002 I'm new to this forum but not new to Doom... I have a new laptop with win2000 on it, and sadly I can't get too many dos games to work with it, and most unfortunately of all is I can't even get Doom to run. It won't even start. I've tried a few tricks, but nothing changes it. My friend got it to work fine on his computer running win2000, but he doesn't know how he did it. If anyone knows, please help! I have all this stuff I've been working on, but can't touch anymore because it's unusable! -Doug 0 Share this post Link to post
Fredrik Posted January 15, 2002 Sorry, many DOS programs - DOOM included - don't run on Windows 2000. Go here and grab a high-tech source port. 0 Share this post Link to post
Revenant! Posted January 15, 2002 You could use ZDoom, Legacy, Edge, jDoom or whatever.... They're all working under Win2k and it doesn't hurt to get a few visual improvements ;) 0 Share this post Link to post

Crendowing Posted January 16, 2002 ...since when was "Nine Inch Nails" an original name in the first place?Since before 1988, when nobody heard of it (to my knowledge at least). On that note, since when "DOOM" an original name? :) 0 Share this post Link to post
