RE: Win 11 issue

Got it working. Thanks to all that helped.
I did re-install from the original 2009 DVD, then added the 1126b beta. Then copied over all the non-exe files from the Babes mods. Works well on Win 11 now.

Win 11 issue

New Win11 computer. Using same switch settings as with Win10, I get a "fatal error 200". Anyone know what this is?

No in-game sound

<t> Have new computer, Win 10 Pro (1709), Intel I7. After several hours of messing with the switches AE runs after a fashion. <br/>
Very sluggish, and the pop-up for naval and air combat flickers. Not ideal, but playable. Current switch settings:<br/>

Bullwinkle did a pretty thorough analysis of this a few years ago. Try searching his old posts.
