Hello, new to these forums. :-)

I've been searching all over for my very very old copy of a game called "Lurid Land" (Some screenshots) and when I finally found it, I got a warning that said something like this:

Code:

Application Error: ...



An privileged instruction was executed at address 0043820b



Click on OK to terminate the application.

I think that's because I'm running on Windows XP and I used to play that on Windows 98 when I was a kid. Still, any help?

Thanks already!

edit. gaaah! Could someone capitalize the second 'l' in this topic. It disturbs me! :-)

If it is a dos game use Dosbox and if it is a Windows game try the compatabilty mode.

It's not a DOS game but I could try with the compatibility mode. I totally forgot that!

edit. I tried with the Windows 98 / ME mode but I got another error:

Code:

The instruction at 00438228 referenced memory at 000f0000

The memory could not be read from



Click on OK to terminate the application

Use Microsoft Virtual PC to run the game.

It's a free download from MS website, but you'll have to install an OS on it like you would on a normal computer. So far it worked for me with several Win95/98 games that refused to work on XP.
