Hi all,

After reading rave reviews of Janes 688(i) I ran out and brought it - but
ARRGGHH - it wont run!
I have a 233MMX with 64M RAM, U\DMA HD, Diamond Viper and Canopus Pure3D
video card and SB64AWE Card.  Tried reniewing my DirectX drivers, installing
the latest drivers for both video cards and deactivating Hardware
acceleration as well as disabling my canopus - nothing has worked so far.

The only clue i have is that when i try to run the game the SB64AWE picture
comes up briefly before the stillframe credit for the game.  This also
happens if i try to run F22 - ADF with the disk in and music toggled on.
Then  F22 wont run either.  Has anyone got any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

MArk Wilson
