- Well, just went out and bought Star Control II.. However, when
- I try and install from the provided floppies to my c: drive I get the
- following error:
-
- Out of environment space
- Bad command or file name
- Making directory c:\STARCON2...
-
- File not found - :INSTALL.BAT
-
- then I get a message telling PROBLEM: Can't create directory \STARCON!..
-
- I'm running Stacker 2.0 on my hard drive with DOS 5.0.. I thought maybe I
- didn't have enough convential memory so I took out some TSR's and reached
- 604,000 bytes free.. still didn't work.. so I tried to change my files to
- 40 and my buffers to 20 but still same out of environment space error..
-
- I have installed many other large games (ie. Wing Commander II, LinksPRO)
-
- Does anyone have any suggestions or should I return my copy.. Although, I
- really don't think it's the software...
-
- Thanks.. saklomp@happy.colorado.edu
