How can one make Ultima IV work on Windows XP? The sounds are working, I get as far as the title screen (the one that asks me if I want to start a new game or stuff) but no matter what button I press it does nothing. Should I just give up?

If you like the old text-based games (who doesn't) try [/QUOTE]Have you downloaded a DOS Emulator, you will need it to get this one running on XP. Try Dosbox

Then again some old DOS games just are not going to work emulator or not.
