Hi all

Got the game today and I have Windows XP and the game wont install, comes up saying "for Windows 95 only" type of message, anyway to install it on XP?
 
unless you got a voodoo 1/2 card no chance from memory, there is a patch for voodoo 2 cards.

Was a few years ago but i doubt much development has been made in glide wrappers.
 
your right, wont work

managed to install it using just a monster 3D card lol but u cant play it get blank screen :(
oh well, worth a try
 
It works fine with a Nvidia card as does RE2 & RE3 as the drivers contain legacy code from the 3DFX days! Games look really dated anyway but they all work on 32bit XP & Vista. Look for a Riva TNT or similar item in the launcher setup menu as thats an early Nvidia card if the 3DFX or Voodoo does not work.

thank you for that info, i'll have to try it again
 
To be honest, you should play the Gamecube remake. It's so much better than the original release. :)

totally agree...i bought a gamecube just to play res 1 and res 4 on the cube...res 1 is like a totally new game and is so different to the ps1 or pc..get a cube for it its great
