#Betrayal at krondor lightning staff windows#

they are originals, not burnt cds or anything. usually in the middle of the screen.Īs far as i can tell, i have all 3 BiA CDs, and both RtK CDs, so i don't think i'm missing anything. So to answer your initial question DosFreak, the error messages just pop up as a little MS window. I have little option but to click on the 'close' button and end this torture. No longer does a System Error window come up, now it is an 'Application Error' window, and it says 'SETUP caused a General Protection Fault in module SETUP.EXE at 0001:2047. i hear laughter.įinally, I've gone into the 'My Computer' shortcut on my desktop and tried again. I think my computer may be sentient, and is actively screwing with me. Now I'm no genius, but that ain't much of a choice is it? I see little distinction between the two options.

The application error i got with BiA gave me no such choice. My two options in this 'System Error' window are to cancel or abort. I click on install, and within about 3 seconds, a little window pops up - it looks a lot like the previous window i encountered with BiA - except the title of this window is 'System Error' and the text says, 'Cannot read from device' But at least i have this small glass of wine and a bit of Tom Petty kickin for company. i click on yes - and now nothing happens at all. The CD is read again, and the same initial box comes up asking if i want to install. I take the CD out, blow on it (a la Nintendo style) and re-insert.

The title of the windows box says 'Application Error', and the message inside the box says 'integer divide by 0' (that's a new one for me). and just now a little windows box about 1-inch x 2-inches popped up: so i clicked on that and then it says it has to test my computer for compatability. I said yes, and it went to a larger set-up screen - the set-up screen had a few options, the most important of which was 'install'. my computer read the CD, and asked me if i wanted to install. thank god i found a step-by-step for DosBox or else i'd never have played BaK either!Īlright well i just put the Betrayal in Antara(BiA) CD in. *Note: I'm not particularly adept with computers, so use acronyms and cpu-lingo to screw me up further Pre-empt that banter here and now with an, 'I know, I know. My google search told me plenty about how these two games aren't as good as the original Betrayal at Krondor, so i'll just anyone solve these problems before? you can just refer me to another page if you like, or cut & paste that answer to this post. I did a search of these chat forums here but holy crap there are a lot of pages. My cpu platform seems to be Windows XP professional. So i can't get anywhere with either of these games - which are like 5 years more recent than Betrayal at Krondor. So now i have Return to Krondor and Betrayal in Antara CDs to play, but when I insert the disc from either game, a System Error box comes up, and says 'Cannot read from device'.Īnd if that doesn't happen, then this problem does:Īn Application Error box that comes up, and it says 'SETUP caused a General Protection Fault in module SETUP.EXE at 0001:2047.' Well i just finished Betrayal at Krondor and that was fun.
