Links working fine on new computer (Win 10)

[Adelade]

it has been explained in detail before...install it to the "c" drive...the root drive....

It has? I dont think I've ever seen that recommendation before. I installed mine on D: this time, and using the regedit too - works fine. The path in the registry was automatically set correctly during my installation.

....I stand corrected then..

To me it seems odd if the settings dont transfer to the registry. Maybe something is wrong with the installation process? ...but that doesnt really make sense if you can open the game one time at the start...

Some thoughts:
-Have you tried other settings in the Compatibility tab?

Yes, tried different settings

Im not sure what theyre called exactly in Windows in German, but Running LinksMMIII as Admin, and some of the other boxes one can tick there?

I did that too

-I truly understand if you're fed up with trying things, but one thing perhaps - to try install on C: disc instead... It shouldnt normally matter, but who knows...

whether C: or D: that shouldn't be a problem, when the game opens, then always in a 4:3 resolution, once 800x600 once 1600x1200, even if I don't do anything change, the game can no longer be started.

-You dont happen to have Links CDs to try the CD version instead?
-Perhaps look around for some settings to fiddle with in Nvidia control panel?

Yes, I still have the old CD version of the game, but I had problems there too.

I don't actually get that far, I need a stand where the game started
And it makes entries in the registry, it doesn't do that, so I can't change settings or because the game doesn't read the registry.
I'm also not sure if it's really going to work, because I've been at that point before.

-Have you tried with no USB devices connected to the computer when launching the game?

I haven't done that yet, I have a USB adapter for keyboard-mouse for use on two PCs, but the second PC works with the USB adapter, but I can do that.
