I have installed the game (version gog-14, "classic game installer", on Windows XP SP3), but after launching it I get a small pop-up window (about how to change the game speed) and then the resolution changes, and a new pop-up with the message "ERROR: Error opening tmpscrn.dat" shows up and stops everything. I can only press "Enter" to close the program.
I suspected a bad download, so I uninstalled the game, donloaded it again and reinstalled it - but with the same result.
The file "tmpscrn.dat" is there, in the root directory of the game. It doesn't seem to be altered, because a comparison between the two successive versions that I have downloaded does not show any difference. It seems that either it is not found, or that it is some other problem opening it or when reading from it.
Before contacting the GOG staff, I'd like to know whether any of you has encountered the same problem (and if he has found a solution). Thank you.
