Hey everyone,

 

i´m not here to bug you or anything, just a new member who found out about this possibility to play the old games. i´ve read through the instructions and tried to follow them as closely as possible, but i get messagte "unable to launch" everytime i try to start a game. because the path for hooking is looking on the C drive and my games are on my big hard drive E, is there a "must" that these games have to be on the same hard drive as the launcher? otherwise i dunno how to solve this and would really appreciate some guidance here.

 

feel free to delete this if this case has already been solved and there´s a link to a description. 

 

cheers

Run the launcher as admin.

 

Also hooking is not looking anywhere. It depends just on the filename. The location of files doesnt matter for hooking.
