Hi everyone...I just bout the Myst Trilogy boxed set (Myst Masterpiece Ed, Myst II, Myst III) and just started on Myst Masterpiece Edition...I played the game for about an hour last night without a hitch until I got to a part where (alright, this might be a bit specific for people who didn't play, but I'll include it anyway in case someone else had this problem...) I have to click on a video that plays in one of the hidden Myst books to go to the next area. Anways, obviously the game does start, I can interact with the environments fine until this point...I should also note that sometimes when I start the game in plain Win XP mode it works fine, other times it crashes on the very first video that plays (for the company's logo), but if I change it to Win 95 or 98 compatibility mode it never seems to crash on that logo video...so I dont know whats going on, as UbiSoft's..helpful <ahem> tech department pointed out to me the box says the game only works in 95/98, though this problem must occur in those OS' too since its documented in their FAQ on their website ( http://ubisoft.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/ubis...nZT0x&p_li= ).
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Id like to think I didnt waste my money and a few hours of my life for nothing.
 
My sys config is:
Dell Inspiron 3800
P3 600 mhz
512 mb ram
ATI Rage Mobility M1-AGP 2X
Win XP
 
Btw, I should also note that I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling the game, up[censored] all of my video and sound drivers, etc. Thanks in advance for your help.
