Re: Links 2003: Nothing seems to help get it to run on my computer.

I do recall reading that thread and a so called 423mb "patch". That is more than just a patch I suspect that would be just about every exe and dll there is. The size alone makes me question it. Without concrete evidence, I put it down to vapourware. I'm running Links on 11th and 13th gene...

Re: Links 2003: Nothing seems to help get it to run on my computer.

Re: Links 2003: Nothing seems to help get it to run on my computer.

John_iv is running Links in Windowed mode so that is something that could certainly be tried. I can run it in both. Just alt-enter to bounce between them. An interesting quirk of the AMD drivers at least for my older tier card is that if I start in windowed mode I do *not* get anti-aliasing. I have...

Didn't you say in your initial post that you had an Nvidia card?
No I didn't. I said I had tried the Nvidia patch (as it use to work in the past with my 6600XT).

Re: Links 2003: Nothing seems to help get it to run on my computer.

I've tried all resolutions from 800 x 600 up to 2560 x 1440. I'm not new to the game either - I've been playing Links since the beginning = long before Microsoft even bought the franchise.
