Gotta add a few hours of fiddling with your AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS to free up memory to the "Gaming Then" column.
Luckily my brother took care of that part. I just had to remember:
d: cd games cd cannon [Space][Space][F3]To play Cannon Fodder.
You could've just typed
cd games\cannonto save a step.Note that only a few years earlier I was rebooting the computer whenever I got stuck in King's Quest, which was a lot, since I didn't understand english.
I don't know which King's Quest.
