Oubliette

malcolmash
Many years ago I played a game called, Oubliette. Presently, I have tried to get the game to run on my win 2000 or win xp machines but have had no luck. The message that I keep getting after the program bombs has something to do with no core, I think is what it says.

Getting Privateer 2 not to crash!!!

Pariah
Hi guys, I just installed Privateer 2 on my comp. I'm running winXP but I've gotten it installed and it runs through the first 3 intro movies, the screen fades to black and then it crashes! Has anyone encountered this problem? I'm not sure if it's because I've got a damaged file or if it's just winXP/DosBox acting up.
