movieclockstar Posted June 29, 2002 Share Posted June 29, 2002 Anyone have any luck getting Day of the Tentacle to run in Windows 98? I just dusted off my copy of DOTT (cd version) and it crashes in 98SE about the point where the LucasArts logo pops up in the intro, due to apparent "memory" errors. Just curious if anyone has found a solution. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huz Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 Whenever DoTT crashed that way for me, it was because I had messed up the sound setup. Have you tried disabling sound just to see if it helps? Alternatively, try the patch from the LucasArts site. Maybe that helps. Maybe. Or just try SCUMMVM as everyone else would suggest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remi Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 The patch worked for me on my old Win98 system, though I had to use Roland sound which sounds sorta... metallic... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prendo Posted July 8, 2002 Share Posted July 8, 2002 DOTT always worked fine for me in Win98 with both voice and music. From what I remember, I used to have to get into DOS mode so I could setup the voice and music with games like Sam n Max and DOTT, because it always screwed up in Windows. I remember getting a few memory errors in DOTT and IJ FOA. I don't know how I ended up fixing it. I might have shut down every unnecessary program that Windows seems to love running in the background. Annoying bastards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GendoTheGreat Posted August 17, 2002 Share Posted August 17, 2002 I remember samnmax only had sound in DOS on my old machine, which was win95 (and a 486DX). My latest rig has win98 it runs samnmax, DOTT, FoA and the rest perfectly well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanFialcowitz Posted November 12, 2002 Share Posted November 12, 2002 I had the exact same problem. Tried ScummVM, worked like a charm. -RPF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
