when I try to play Bialr with voulme 1 rustin parr.. i get the error saying... "Windows is reporting -1950.7 mb of free swap disc this game requies 200 mb."
I click ok the game comes up but I can not change any of the optins like screen rez.. I think it has to do with that error..


TIA

Maybe a patch is available.. that may at least help. Also, have you tried compatibility w. Win95 as well?

maybe try disabling/reducing your page file. it probably is confused with a 4 digit page file size.

What OS are you running?

Is this a DOS game? " Bialr with voulme 1 rustin parr" I never heard of it. I can't even find a game named "bialr" in Google.
