Hi Phil, Where are all the old pcs dos games? Also, if anyone wants a small textbased monopoly game, just email and I'll attach it. The file is very small so hopefully it will work. If anyone has a dos system, I have a cool textbased game here that, for some reason, won't run under the ms-dos prompt on my Windows Melenium system. It gives me this error 'cannot execute child of basic' What does this error mean? Is their anything I can do? Does anyone want the game, I really enjoyed it, although I never managed to finish it yet, since it was on the school's computer, and I was fairly new to TA when I tried it. I think I've explained the game's objectives on here before: 'You've just finished PE class, when you return to the dressing room to find that all your stuff, i.e towel, clothes, wallet, etc has been stolen, probably as a joke.' Your job is to find your stuff, but evade the bullying bigger boys and the principal, Mr Extra Mean. Another textbased game which I'm looking for but really can't find, is the submarine game called 'Under the Ice.' In this one, you must transport secret WW 2 documents to Moscow, but beware of enemy ships, as well as trying to track down a suspected double agent. If someone has that game, can someone please email it to me?
