I have never been able to get RB3D to work with XP. Any suggestions?

I have XP and it works fairly well. The only problem I have is the occasional program stoppage when I hit the "Tab" key to start the engine. It seems Red Baron is very particular about what it will and won't do with XP and that it's very hardware specific. Some people that run it with XP have to do things to get it to have sound, others have no problems, and others can't play it at all. I guess I have to consider myself lucky to be able to play it at all with the relatively few problems I have. Sorry I can't help you, but if you mention the specifics of your machine maybe somebody else that's adept with computers may be able to suggest something.

Try going to Wings of Valor check in the files section there is a document for XP work arounds there.

Hello folks

Windows XP has the capability to let you partition the hard drive, and load another operating system on that partitioned area.

In other words, you can boot up your XP machine with the partitioned section using Win 98 as the operating system and voila! RB3D!

Enclosed is a link to review. A pal of mine says it works fine for him.

Good luck and safe flying

Patrick
