hi guys im trying to get ultimate soccer manager 98/99 to work in xp pro. it loads on compatability mode for win 95 but the screen is split and the wrong side ??? it works ok in safe mode so i know the game is alright does anyone have any ideas?

i have tried the application compatability toolkit but have had no joy please help
 
Unfortunately ultimate soccer manager 98/99 doesn't work properly in Windows XP but there is a way to fix it with QfixApp:


1. On your Win XP cd go to the folder "Support"
2. Then "Tools"
3. Double click ACT20.exe, and then the Application Compatability Toolkit will be installed
4. The Application Compatability Toolkit will now be in your Start menu in windows.
5. Open QfixApp
6. Click Browse, and choose the USM98.exe file

Go to fixes and a long list of setting will appear.

Now the next bit is a bit long winded:

AddProcessParametersFlags
AddWritePermissionsToDeviceFiles
AliasDXDC
AllowDesktopSetProp

ChangeAuthenticationLevel

When you select all of this click Advanced -> Create Fix Support and there you have it. The game will work perfectly under Windows XP.

thanks for the reply i tried this fix but with the later act 5.0 and it made no difference????? in the places i have seen this fix no one has confirmed this as working. it is wierd as the game runs fine in safe mode which leads me to beleive it is a graphics driver issue but i wouldnt have a clue where to start to try and fix this.
