I am getting, for the first time, a new ATI card rather than Nvidia card, which I normally get. I am getting an ATI 4850.

Never could get W&W to work previously, so anyone had joy getting this to work with an ATI card?

Well, when I install the card, install the game and see that it works and it does, then I expect ATI card sales to go up!

Wow, its cool to see that people still play this game. I should give it a go myself. I am currently using WindowsXP Professional. I'll have to dig around a little bit and find out whats going to happen! Of course, I will just try to install and play it first. I did play through the whole game when it first came out. Quite a memorable experience. Then of course, Wizardry VIII came along and I havent really played much else since! :p

Got the ATI 4850, installed the patches from here and the game is now working fine at 1280x1024 straight out of the box - so the problem for a lot of people may just be they have an NVidia card!

Wow!! Glad you got the game running and the suggestion of what the problems may have been!!

uk_john - you may want to post a note to that effect in the Tech Tip Thread - might be useful to someone else!

Wyvern - way ahead of you and did it right after I posted here!

Been reading the tips thread from page one and it occurs to me what a brilliant multi-page review it is too! Nothing like finding out what's IN a game to work out how good it is!
