PROBLEM 1:

Could somebody please advise me on how to get DoomSPV working...

When I first had a go at installing I was given the MISSING WAD FILE error.

I downloaded a second version anyway and tried that... same problem..

What I need to know is could somebody please give me instructions on WHERE to place the files - ie: WHICH FOLDERS in WHICH - DIRECTORIES/SUB-DIRECTORIES - plus any further steps needed...

PROBLEM 2:

I have also tried to put other games (ie: Micro Turismo) straight into the GAMES folder in the START UP directory....

...they are XML documents and all that happens is that INTERNET EXPLORER springs up and displays a list of code, nothing more.... where are they supposed to be put etc - plus also any further steps needed..

This may sound stupid to anybody with the knowledge but hey!

I look forward to keeping my hands and eyes busy on many a bus or train journey... I might even use the SPV on occasion as well!!!

Many thanks - BG

Welcome to the site :lol:

In response to your second question it sounds like you're not running the exectuables?? (.exe files) And i presume you meant the StartMenuGames folder as opposed tot he StartupGames folder?

You need shortcuts to your executable files in your games folder...

Sound's like you're extracting the .cab's. Place theres files in IPSMWindowsStart MenuAccessories and then go to that folder in your Programs > Accessories folder. Run them as normal and they will launch the installer.

Doom: Extract DoomSPV.exe to your storage card, then create a subfolder called DoomSPV and place the .WAD file in there. Doom should then run.
