sorry if this is the wrong place to put it but idk what to do :newbie:

plz someone help...i've tried other versions and reinstalling it and stuff but i still can't read menu text at all

First, what version of Windows do you have? If you have Vista, it has been confirmed that Vista isn't the friendliest with version 2.10, and you should use one of the 2.5 betas instead.

Second, you can try using windowed mode by setting it to start that way using ZC launcher. If you don't have ZCL, do this instead:

1) Open the Start Menu, and click "Run..."

2) Type "command" in the box, and click "OK."

3) Navigate to the folder that ZC and Zquest are in. If you don't know what this means, please respond with the entire path where ZC and Zquest are located, and I can give more detailed instructions.

4) Type the following lines for ZC and Zquest, respectively, to start them in windowed mode:

zelda-w -windowed
zquest-w -windowed

You can also go to the Zelda Classic FAQ to learn more about Command line parameters.
