Theme Hospital Multiplayer. An installation of Theme Hospital is of course. In Windows an option has been added in your start menu called DOSBox. This is how to install Theme Hospital using DOS-Box. Credit goes to Bullfrog for making this amazing game. Ok, more problems: I installed the game, and it lounched and everything seemed to be alright, then I turned it off, because I wanted to know how to make it full screen. In any case then i started the dosbox again mounted the directory where the game is installed mount c c: hospital hospital c: hospital.exe and one time everything started again, then i pressed alt-enter to make it full screen and the game crashed down, and on the screen there were error messages I mean i couldn't even see them clearly because they were somehow beneath the img, if oyu know what i mean, like some pieces of the img were gone, and in those blank places there were parts of error messages. In any case, i shut down dosbox and started it again so again i mount the same directory as earlier and everything, then appears a black screen but nothing else happens.

ZimpanX I tried running it on XP mode, but I get an error saying 'Failed to initialise VRES256 screen.' I tried compatability settings as wellas the'Run in 256 colors' option and still it doesn't even run. There's an emulator (legit) called DosBox where it lets you play the old 95' games on your pc with full compatibility. I know for sure Theme Hospital worked on Vista, I think it'll work on Windows 7. Here's the site, bud. Mhofever I tried using DosBox, but I get an error saying 'This program cannot be run in DOS mode' when I try to use it with the game's exe file. So any more suggestions? (and please don't mention to change operating systems). ![]() Only thing I could dig up was about dome DirectX issue, they say it will correct itself if you go to uninstall and re-install but this time select to have DirectX installed even though it is an older version it adds in some DLLs that aren't present with the newer DirectX revisions. Might work it might not but I think it is worth giving it a shot. XXDrPainXx I can't uninstall DirectX. It's not in the uninstall list. Well if you wait i will try to find my old copy of Theme Hospital and see if i can get it to work on windows 7 64 KalDurenik Hah, good luck! You will get it to run, but it seems there is no fix for the mouse problem.
