    Noooooo! My Epic Pinball doesn't run!

    ARRGGGHH! Killl

    I have Epic Pinball on CD http://www.epicgames.com/pinball.htm#about

    it has like 20 games pack on the CD. I thought it was soooo goood (the best Pinball Game ever) I bought it so me and my family can play it. I bought it while I have had Win98 and my Matrox Video cards in my computers. I have not played it in maybe a year. I have run it very sucessfully then, not it will not run. Maybe over this time several upgrades with software and srtups have made it so I am unable to run this program. Epic Pinball goes into a DOS screen to play, anfd goes back to windows when you leave the game. I am just steamed, because I liked the game, so does my daughter. Arrrghh,,, pissed
    I am not looking for a solution here, I really usually have bad results when I mess with the config.sys and autexec.bat files in Win98. it's not like the old days, now things can get messed up badly with just one mistake. ***sigh***

    Why not installing W2k it's working fine under it... or maybe installing an old Dos release on a new partition.
