Hi.
Maybe I'm a bit wrong with the "installation" word, but I can't get Xeen
to run.

I bought the CDROM version of World of Xeen (well, that's basically Dark
Side and Cloud, right ?).  
Type INSTALL --> recognizes my PAS-16 (good).
Just do a minimal install (no intros installed) to drive E.
under directory e:\xeen
Finished, type XEEN
it goes into the intro.....
and then after the intro, the screen goes stripes black and white
(vertical).  You can see it's drawing something, but It's just being
striped all over (can't see a thing, just black and white thingies).
I'm using a STB Powergraph VL24 (fine with all other games/never had
this problem before).  
Even in INTRO, pressed esc, the same result.
tried to change from qemm386 to emm386, same result.
Running it under OS/2 (fullscreen DOS session), still gives the same
result.
Bareboot (just emm386) still no go.
Please help, I want to play (well, it's almost christmas, right ??
*grin*)

Thanx beforehand 4 those kind souls out there that can help.

Ciao.
Muljadi Budiman.
