I want to start off by saying that this is a great program and thanx to ZC for putting up the site!!

Ok here is my problem.

I use windows XP and for some reason when I go to play any version of ZC The flame screen comes up and then you see zelda classic screen for like 1 sec. and then my computer restarts.

I have the compatability set to 98/ME

Any suggestions? I have used it before on win 98 and it worked just fine.

You are using the Windows version of ZC?

Try downloading the all-in-one self-installing version.

Also, try adding '-fast' to the command line and see what happens.

Finally, post the contents of the allegro.log file here so we can see where it dies.

I am kind of a newbie so..

what do you mean by add -fast?

Sorry fo the double post but here is the log
