What's the exact error message that you get? You should have either 15-bit or 16-bit on your computer, so it should work.<br><br>Try running the game Setup program and selecting a different resolution, or checking "Use letterbox mode".<br><br>If all else fails, run it in a window instead.<br> <p></p><i></i>

Did you try setting the game resolution to 640x400? It might run slower, but if your video card won't support 320x200 it might be the only choice.<br><br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://httpd.chello.nl/c.vanempel/Nashu ... <!--EZCODE IMAGE END--> <p></p><i></i>

Are you running the <!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>Game Options</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> for the game, rather than your display settings?<br><br>Go to Start, Programs, Tierra, KQ2VGA, Game Options. First of all try checking "Force alternate letterbox mode" and save the settings, then run the game again.<br> <p></p><i></i>

To save...

You can press F5 to save, or select the slider button in the toolbar to get the game's control panel. There's a save button there. <p></p><i></i>

If you have trouble with the interface, press the F1 key or click the question mark on the icon bar or read the part of the manual that describes the interface.<br><br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://httpd.chello.nl/c.vanempel/Nashs ... <!--EZCODE IMAGE END--> <p></p><i></i>

What you need for the fountain <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>is</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> found outside of town. Search south of the town, on the screens close to the house in the tree.<br><br>As for where to post, if you have questions regarding gameplay, like if you need hints and clues, you should post in the <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://pub57.ezboard.com/froyalquestforumsfrm18">King's Quest II: Romancing the Stones Forum</a><!--EZCODE LINK END-->. The Technical Forum is reserved for those who have problems with the actual game itself, like bugs and game errors.<br><br>~Wolfgang <p></p><i></i>
