Hack for 32bit windows users - 23/12/13 10:49 PM
If you are running a 32 bit version of windows you may not be able to start a new game. I've come up with a hack that should get you past this problem.
Use this hack at your own risk. This 'hack' increases the user space available to windows at the cost of the system space. Some badly written drivers don't like this. So if your system becomes unstable your only option is to reset the changes the hack makes.
To activate the hack:
If DOS still crashes when you atart a new game try increasing the value after increaseuserva (up to the maximum value of 3096).
To reset the hack:
Do the above but instead of typing bcdedit /set increaseuserva 2560 type bcdedit /set increaseuserva 2048.
