So what did you do to get the game to work on Windows 7? I've tried many different settings, but I always get errors and program crash as soon as I launch it.

Did you ever get Combat Chess to work. Mine works pretty much right off the download. I don't have UAC turned on, which may be the issue.

Hmmm, this is strange.

I recently bought Combat chess when it was on sale. I played it once without any problems, but the next time I wanted to play the game, it would't start. Insted I got this message i a dialogue box::

[i]Critical Error
Not enough memory in load sprite 2 Last Windows Error=8.[/i]

I uninstalled the game and reinstalled. Again it worked perfectly fine the first time I played it but the next time I got the same message as before.

Does anyone else have this annoying problem?

Another question. What is UAC and how does one turn it off?

I have tried to change the the versions of Windows and I have also tried to run the game as administrator, but it just won't comply...pitty...I usually don't have problems with games from GOG :-(
