ok heres the thing, I wanna play Lemmings 2 - The Tribes, so I got it and when I goto run it, it comes up with this:

16 bit MS-DOS Subsystem
Lemmings 2
An application has attempted to directly access the hard disk, whick cannot be supported. This may cause the application to function incorrectly. Choose 'Close' to terminate the application.

I'm using XP, and I think my specs are good, 2.2Ghz, it ran on my 486 with a highspeed 66 mhz, so I think my CPU is good.:tongue2

But why won't it run??, I need to play this game again, I miss it, I miss making super flying Lemmings then having them crash into the wall and fall to there doom, somebody please help me.

EDIT: I've tried that compatibility thing in XP, no luck.

It needs DOS to run i'm afraid, you could make a dos boot disk with the appropreate config.sys and autoexec.bat files to get it to run, or you could try running a dos emulator like DOSbox.
dukes
there will be a windows version out there somewhere. just have to look hard enough and know where to look.
