Hi folks,

I'm new to playing DMODs having just recently found the Dink Smallwood game and completeing it.

I'm like a turn key driver when it comes to computers. If it runs when I push go great otherwise I'm not a programer or IT type who can diagnose his own system.

I'm running into a lot of problems with DMODs like Birth of an Empire, As Good As Eternity and The legend of Terjin.

Music, I get music on the full version game and DMODS maybe 1 out of 5 times I play. If I have music at the title screen I will in the game. Only the music is like this I always get the sound effects.

Title screens do not load correctly about half the time I get a partial title screen with no new game, load icons ect. If I move the mouse around I hear them click and with Legend of Terjin I can start and load games even though I can't see the icons.

Playing Terjin I can go and pick up all three logs but can't give them to mom. When I go back with them she keeps saying 3 logs should do it. The logs also do not show in my inventory list.

In almost as good as Eternity with the fists armed Dink changes into the Goblin from birth of an Empire when I attack. Initially purchased swords and potions did not show up in my inventory even though gold was deducted from my total.

I restarted the game at some point maybe a few tries then items started to show on my inventory. while the game played fine to the end Dink always changed to the Goblin when attacking in fist mode.

I'm running windows 98 on a 350 AMD K2-6, 192 ram and an ATI rage pro, not a great card but the video graphics are fine.

Any advice out there?
