OK, Iīve seen a lot of unanswered messages including the following:

*The instruction at 0041783d referenced Memory at 079a9758 The memory could not be read from
*Game crashes when talking to NPCīs
*Game rashes when using/giving objects

All these are trademarks of running W&W on win2k. I do the same and my gameīs now working like a charm, well almost that is but still better than it did when I was running win98!
*First download the compatibility update from Microsoft, thatīs here:
Microsoft. I donīt know if it helps with this game but it certainly helps with other ones.
*Then log in as Administrator, recomendation for win2k is to always install games/programs when logged in as administrator!! Create a shortcut, either in startmenu or on desktop for c:\....\wizardswarriors\deep6.exe.
*Then rightclick the shortcut, select the compatibility tab, check "run in compatibility mode", then select either win98 or win95. I donīt know which is the better...
*And of course extract the townavi files with virtualdub!!! Links are found earlier in this post!
*The game ought to work now and youīll be able to talk, give, cast spells and open chests! BUT, the game can still freeze sometimes so SAVE often!!!
ps. Wyv, Saz etc, feel free to remove the marquee tag if disturbing! Iīm sure thereīs a better tag for getting attention, but I donīt know them, lol...
