Re: Links on Windows11

I used the cds, pasted all of the current patches, when the game shows up on the screen, it is partially showing (about half of the screen) and lagging big time. I am not familiar with the compatibility mode, how do you get to that? I appreciate your help Adelade, thanks.

Okay Sandy, I am almost computer illiterate. Please explain to me how I can plug a HDMI cable into a video card & where they are. Thank you for your patience, Old Jack

There are no issues with Windows11 and Links. At least that has been my experience thus far. It seems as though the issue is hardware and Links.
Thanks for your help, I will keep on plugging until I can figure it out - Jack

Re: Good & bad news playing on windows 11

Re: Good & bad news playing on windows 11

Could be Dana, this computer is a 24" all in one HP with Intel(R) Iris(R) Xe graphics. My grandson says that is a kick ass computer for his games, but they aren't 20 years old like Links is. Are video cards easy to install? Thanks for your help.

Re: Links not opening on windows 11

Now more problems, every time I click on the Links icon it says to insert disc1 again. Jeezalou, I am so screwed up, I almost wish my wife had not bought me this new computer for our 51st anniversary. Help again, please!
