Total Posts: 2486 | Yeah, the amount of RAM is correct. Though, there were problems with older games running on AMS versions never than 2.05. Games had to be recompiled with newer libraries to support the newer AMS but obviously not all games were. If nothing works you may have to downgrade your AMS at the expense of losing desktop and clock to play this game. What error does the game give you after you install and run it?

<<
Please follow the install process.
Send Cinstall and only it to your calc.
Run Cinstall from the home screen.
Follow the instructions carrefully to install the program.
After a crash, remember to run system\preos before running Cf.
