Re: Issues trying to run Aliens: a Comic Book Adventure
I've seen DOS 6.22 hang like that a couple of times when a program generates an exception. If possible, you might try running in the Windows 95 command prompt; that usually seems to give more useful exception output.
Is it possible that this game requires an FPU? I think the couple of times I've seen a fatal exception on program boot like that, it's been because the program was looking for an FPU and didn't find one.
