Since Phillip is the only one that updates the compatibility database it takes him quite some time to update it. Can't give ya any figures but I'm sure he'll see this thread and reply.

From my NT Game Compatibility List:

Magic Carpet 2

Windows XP

Works in XP without NOLFB depending on video card. With my GF3/GF4 VESA would not work.

With my ATI it does. No diff with/without NOLFB. If VESA does not work try NOLFB.If still

doesn't work then try Connectix Virtual PC.

Windows 2000

1. Copy CD to NETHERW directory.
2. Setup game.
3. Run mouse2kv 640 480 8 8 netherw.exe
If you do not then you will be unable to use the mouse in the game menus.
4. Run NOLFB.
If you do not then you will be unable to use higher resolutions in the game.
5. Play the game!

Use Connectix Virtual PC if these instructions do not work for you.
