All right, I've played this game in CD version before on an old Win98SE box that literally blew up about a year and a half ago. I now have a laptop with WinXP Home Edition on it. 2.4 Ghz Pentium 4 processor M, ATI 9000, 1.25 Gig RAM...

So anyway, I have Virtual PC on my computer to run Win98SE so I can play my old beloved DOS games when I want to. Unfortunately, When my old Win98SE box blew up, my 5th CD of Overseer must have been in it when I got rid of it because it is missing. (Nope, not where it belongs in the DVD case.) So, I wanted to play the DVD version...buuuuuuuuut, even in Win98SE in VPC with the last patch made for the game, none of the movies work. Black screens with the multiple choice selections only.

Soooooooo, I looked back in the old message board to find answers, but none of the DVDExpress links work anymore. I cannot find the full 20MB version of the program!

So, I was wondering if there were any new fixes for it or old alternative fixes that I might have missed? Thanks all, I appreciate the help. :)

P.S. Long live Tex! I want more books, too, so you guys gotta get to writing! :P lol I just bought the $6 paperback of Under a Killing Moon for almost $40! So I am obviously a fan. ;)

I agree. "Nilo", you're being far too helpful. I declare that you must be an IMPOSTER!

Hey, guys, give me a break! :( This is Good old Nilo you're poking fun at :twisted: ; Tex's loving landlord :wink:. And yes, Cub "that's just a nickname" :!: Hey, Jerry, I've been called a lot of things by Tex Murphy but, never an "IMPOSTER!". :o Well, to be honest about it, when I played Pandora I kept looking for a weapon in the inventory whenever Nilo was around.
Thanks, Guys, for adding a little humor to my day!
