Countdown (1990) under 2k?

Recommended Posts

Does anyone have any suggestions about how to run Access Software's "Countdown" (1990) under Windows 2000?

 

I couldn't get the installation program to run, but by just copying the files and running the .exe in a full-screen window, I was able to start the game. The opening screen came up and the first soundfile played, but after that, the program locked up.

 

A review and download is available at http://www.theunderdogs.org/game.php?name=Countdown

I don't have the game but are you running any motherboard monitoring utilities? If so uninstall/disable them. Some interfere with NTVDM.

nope, not running any monitoring utilities.

It seems to run fine if I run it with no sound, though. Using the default VDMSound settings and I haven't encountered any problems in other games. Countdown is listed on VDMSound's compatibility list and doesnt mention any problems.
