I'm actually having trouble getting that game to work. I spent all night last night installing games over again and making sure they worked. When I run STTNG.EXE it goes through the loading process and the drops to the command prompt as if it forgot to actually run the game. And when I type MEM /C I see that STTNG.EXE is in the TRS list and it's hogging all the memory! I have to reset the computer to free it up again. I've tried running it with and witout EMS memory. Any thoughts?

I miss my old 4x CD-ROM.  It was totally reliable, silent, and never stopped spinning so you didn't get the spin-up delays that you get on modern drives (arglebarglegrumble.)

And I should have come back to QS forums sooner...  I used to live in Winnipeg until just last year!  Cheesy

Well A Final Unity never caused me any trouble. Normally it is helpful to read all the available documentation (including trouble shooting guides or readme.txt files). This usually lists all common memory misconfigurations. (That's the part where you edit your config.sys / autoexec.bat files)
