ARGH!! DUMB WIN XP!!! (WINMM.DLL problem)

[Joey]

ok, im using this program RPGPro (i highly recommend you download it) and when i go to walk into this item that can break when im playing my game, a little window pops up, and says something like: Run Time Error '53' file not found c:\windows\system\WINMM.dll.

i downloaded that dll and put it in there, but i still get the error. how can i fix it? (i have win xp)

nevermind anyone who viewed this thread. i found out what was wrong. i had too old of a version in the windows\system folder.

I read your thread but since I don't have WIN XP...

BTW. Why some people has problem with Windows XP?
Somebody cannot run old games under XP, no sound,
file not found...

Those problems keep me away from WIN XP.

Same with Windows 2000. You can actually get a "compatibility layer" download for WindowsXP and apparently it works for some games, but since I haven't installed XP yet, I can't tell you if it works well.

Somebody reported that Naturette 3 is not working under Windows 2000. I asked him/her to use Nagi to run Naturette 3.

Well, that's weird... On my Windows XP, almost every DOS game runs fine... Everybody else say that the same games won't. ???

Which version of XP are you using? Home or Professional?

Maybe one version works better on older games than another.
