Now they are nearly 10 years old, so are meant to be played on Windows 95 systems and above, but being on XP myself im finding myself not being able to play them (I have never tried playing many of the older games on my laptop).
I managed to get them both installed but had problems with both.
LBA 1 installed, but i had to chose my own sound and video card myself, of which both werent on the list, so couldnt do it. I picked any, and when it loaded, it crashed to my desktop and screwed it up, leaving me having to restart.
LBA 2 installed on its own, and when i played it, there was sound. However, the screen didnt show right, lots of lines across it and distortion, though i could just make out what was on the screen.
Obviously XP is something to do with this right?
Just wondered if anyone would be able to let me know how i can go about playing these games.
Any help would be appreciated.
Ta.
I had LBA on the PS1 and thought it was superb. I then got rid of it for some reason still unknown to me and regretted it ever since.
Went looking for them on ebay...and picked them both up in the same auction, with a Buy It Now price of...£1.50.
LBA2 sells for £10+ on its own usually. I was chuffed to bits.

Ebay?
I remember seeing one for sale on the 'local notices' board at the nearest supermarket to me.
Failing that seperately buy any old PC and a copy of win 95 then install it.
Easy.
