MechWarrior 2: Resource Forum

I'm running Windows 7, 32 bit. I installed Mech Warrior 2: 31st Century Combat recently using this tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eCyNMEhTCtQ. I bought the game back in 1995. Everything works great until you choose to accept a mission. You immediately fail the mission and you are prompted to retry or abort the mission. Similarly, you can choose a tutorial mission, but you never actually get to run the tutorial. The screen just flickers and goes back to the tutorial select screen. Got any ideas?

The Pentium Editions currently run best in virtual machines like VMWare or Virtual PC.

I think it will only run on 32bit versions of Windows.. if you are running 64bit there probably is going to be more problems..

Your best bet is to buy a DOS version and use mechvm to install it and run it via dosbox.
