Tex Murphy

Taz202 · 04-20-2004, 06:39 PM

Has anyone out there played any of the Tex Murphy games. It's an older series of games about a private detective in post apocolyptic San Fransico. I haven't played it in a long time. I have problems getting it to run on my system. I need to get a boot disc made up. If you have heard of this is there any other games out there similar, I found this game as enjoyable as any I've played so far.

Actually some of the titles, Under A Killing Moon for example, are dos based and not designed to run under Windows. I need dos based drivers for the mouse, and possibly the sound and video as well. I haven't been able to find these drivers yet. The other games mentioned on the site mentioned work but with no sound. I think that is because I only have on board sound on my mobo at the moment
