Does anyone have this game? Every time I try to get it, DOS gives me an error on running it and I can't play.

Any help would be appreciated

I have it running on my XP laptop, but not sure where my laptop is at the moment.

Once I dig it out, I'll see what compatiability mode setings I used to get it to work.

DOSBox

It has Princess Maker 2 listed so it should work

Dosbox for the win.

Playing XCom and other old games = good thing.

When in DOSbox type: "mount c c:\(Folder)", where folder is whatever contains the Princess Maker executable. Then type "c:" to switch to that folder. Then type whatever the exe is named and go from there.

So if the program is c:\PrincessMaker\Princess.exe...

mount c c:\PrincessMaker

c:

Princess

Found the laptop. Just checked PM2. Looks like I am able to run it without compatability mode, and with no setting changed. Just double clicked the exe and it seems to run just fine for me(XP Home).

Not sure if this is the type of thing you're looking for...

But it's where I got my version from. Seems to work pretty well.

It's what I'm looking for, lets see if it works

edit: and it still hates me

First time I played, I got painter. Second, since I actually explored, she turned into the Princess of Darkness. Rock. I'm a bad influence.

She looks like a serious devil bondage queen with that ending.

She does. Even more of a whore than when she actually becomes a whore.

Then again, it IS to be expected.
