[edit] Upkeep in Battlespire section.

Um, I think the Battlespire pages really need a lot more attention then they are getting, just because it wasn't popular as Daggerfall doesn't mean it shouldn't be kept up to date!

[edit] Running Battlespire on Windows XP

I have been attempting to get all the Elder Scrolls games to run efficiently on my Windows XP machine with no special hardware, and thanks mainly to DOSbox have been rather successful, but Battlespire continues to taunt me. The autorun works normally thru WinXP when I insert the CD, it appears to install quickly and correctly, but upon exiting the installer, the autorun window still has "Play Battlespire" greyed out, and when running the batch file to launch the game thru DOSbox, I get a "Unable to install or detect VBE 2.0" message. I attempted to run the batch file with VDMsound also and got a somewhat different error referring to SVGA. I have tried both installation modes ("Bypass" the internal video drivers, and "Normal"). Supposedly DOSbox provides built-in VESA/SVGA VBE 2.0 support, but try telling that to Battlespire. If anybody out there can solve this mystery I will be very grateful. 65.24.75.149 20:24, 18 April 2008 (EDT)Kyle
