HELP! can't get zc or zq to run...
hello everyone. i've run zc and zquest before on other computers. i am familiar with the program. i just got this new computer up and running and on line again and downloaded ZC and ZQ (i tried both the new beta and 1.90). i installed them, and then when i try to actually open the file, my comptuer does all kinds of wacky things...sometimes it automatically restarts itself, sometimes it brings up this blank black screen that freezes my computer (i can't even control-alt-delete to get out of it, i have to restart my entire computer). i'm running windows 98...same thing i was running on my other computer...why is this happening? is it a video card issue or what exactly is the problem? please help!
still no love...computers hate me...
sometimes it lets me control-alt-delete twice to restart, sometimes i have to manually restart. but it NEVER actually lets me open an AGN program. not the AGN setup, not zquest, not zc...nothing. just a black screen, with what looks like a single horizontal line about one pixel thick of random colors at the top. does anyone have ANY clue what i can do to get these things to run?
not too good wth dos...help?
i'm ignorant when it comes to DOS...perhaps you could help? i've got my zelda classic folder inside the C drive. so if i open the dos prompt, it says automatically C:Windows>
now how exactly do i get these other files to run?
i appreciate the help and apologize for my ignorance.
you nailed it...now how to fix it...
hey cloral...thanks for the help in pinpointing the problem...my DOS can not run at full screen. i'm not sure what kind of video card i have in. you say you had a similair problem...how did you get around it? argh...joe is frustrated.
how did you end up fixing the problem exactly on your computer?
