Game won't play

I have Deer Hunter 4 that my wife loves to play on my XP. I have tried to get it
to play on her ME:128mb of Ram; generic ide disk type 47; 32-bit; WnME 4.90.3000
hd. Computer: Packard Bell w/cyrixlnstead;cyrixM-ll(tm). PC Cards: No PC Card sockets
are installed. Install went ok, but I get a window: Could not initialize hardware
accelerator (it has other info telling what it could be, but I tried that).
If need be I can send that info also. Any ideas. It works just fine on the XP. TFYH,
Tommy.

Hi Tommy.
Maybe you need the new patch for "Deer Hunter 4".
http://www.sunstorm.net/downloads_dh4v11_patch.htm
It fixes several bugs including issues with Cyrix.
Take care,
Linda

Thanks, Linda. I went there and downloaded the file but the game still won't work.
I think I may not have the correct requirements on this machine as I have not worked
on it lately. I keep getting a message: could not initialize hardware accelerator.
Hardware initialization may fail for many reasons. You can attempt to corrfect
this by: 1. Switching your desktop to 16-bit color depth; 2. Running the game in
Full Screen mode, (set gfx_fullscreen = 1 in your default .cfg file); 3. Rebooting
your system. I think I have tried all this. Thinking my PC Card may be the problem.
I noticed somewhere in the system that there is no PC Card sockets installed. I
don't even know if this has anything to do with it though. But thank you for your
interest, Tommy.
