I need some help, please! I just got my copy of the fantastic The Incredible Machine Mega Pack and tried to install and run TIM 3 on my computer. No success. :/
I've tried - almost - everything:
- Changed compatibility modes with every other OS available on the compatibility list;
- Checked and changed other settings regarding compatibility issues (like resolution, administrator privileges, etc);
- Checked any possible issues with Windows Defender (I do not use any other antivirus software);
- Checked and tried lots of suggestions found in other topics;
- Checked and tried alternatives listed on GOG's support page.
When I change compatibility modes with other OSs, two different things happen:
1 - The game launches and instantly closes (I only get to see a game window opening and closing). This is weird, because it happens when I try to run the game on Win 95 compatibility mode (the "highly recommended" OS for compatibility issues);
2 - The game launches, I get to see a full window of the game in a low resolution, showing the opening clip with Sierra's mascot (but without any sound), and then the game crashes on the following screen. "TIMWIN.EXE has stopped working".
My basic PC specs:
- Windows 10 Pro
- Intel Core i5-2500
- 8 GB RAM
- GeForce GTX 950
Any hints, guys?
