Trying to get Tomb raider 1 to work on vista!

[Dvader0086]

OK I found a copy of tomb radier one for $5.99 and it won't work because of dos... I know there is no dos on vista but there is an emulator for running 3d dos programs... I used these faq http://www.tombraiderhub.com/faq/tr1.html and I get the same error message every time I change the settings... Can anyone help me?

Don't have Tomb Raider, so I can't say that this works, but give it a try:

doesn't dosbox work in vista? I found something about dosbox in vista, and have run Tomb Raider in dosbox before...here:

I am trying to get in touch with the people who created this program... I may get some anwsers...

[Atariangamer]

I doubt that they will give support for a game that is...what is it? 15 years old?

I really suggest dosbox. It works.

[Dvader0086]

I suppose it could work... but it looks alot better in glideos or vdvoodoo

[Atariangamer]

I would think it would. But, hey, are glideos and such sourceports?

[Dvader0086]

it's a 3d glide sourceport... It makes it look better then it would in dos...

Screw It! I am going to get Tomb Raider Anniversery! It's got better graphic the Tomb Raider 1... It is the same story though... Just better graphics!

[Atariangamer]

... U fail at the main thing we do here...make things backward compatible... lol jk

But yeah, get the Anniversary edition, better graphics, garunteed to work, and probably better on your pc. Tell us how that goes!

[Dvader0086]

Anniversary Works very well indeed... Much better everything then TR1... It is awesome! If your a fan of Tomb Raider, Then get it...
I reccomend it highly...
