so how does it use the war2 cds? I have mine and couldn't install it on xp due to lack of dos, is that an issue? and for the x51v which version the true vga or qvga?

I tried it but it won't start. After launching Stratagus, the PPC will crash and I've to soft reset. smokie. can u post a simple guide and files needed to get it running ?

i had it running but now its all mesed up. i downloaded the full setup copied everything to an sd card it ran fine the first time. 2nd time the screen split in 2 and started to repeat it self every few centimeters, 3-5th time i launch i get the screen in a very small portion(less than 1/4) of the full dell screen and the options menu appears in the center everything is shrunken down and the touch pad is off(its alligned fine out of the game) anyone have any ideas?

40MB for VGA... hello? The HX4700 and the X5xv have 64 MB of RAM? What, eliminate 70% of the popluation?

Well, as the game port was given for free and the developer doesnt even have a VGA device to tweak for, i am not really complaining. It runs on my x50v though occasionally I have to do a soft reset before starting.

I cant extract the warcraft 2 files from either the cd or the install location. It says "cannot find warcraft 2 in this folder". I have the battle.net edition btw.
