[comp.sys.ibm.pc] 3-D Helicopter Simulator by Sierra

gec@cscosl.ncsu.edu (Errol Casey) (03/16/90)

I recently purchased Sierra's 3-D Helicopter simulator but it does not
work on my IBM PC.  I have an original IBM PC (I have replaced the 8088
with a NEC V20) with 640K.  I have an ATI EGA 800 Wonder card, 30 MEG
Segate 238R hard drive, and two floppy drives (3.5 and 5.25).

The box recommends that you use an AT class or higher machine, but does
not state that an AT is REQUIRED.

If anybody that owns the program can tell me for sure if I need an AT,
or why the it will not work I my machine; please email me!

The program attempts to load up and changes the graphics mode (my screen
goes blank and hmms), then it will display three small images in black
and white of the scenery.  I can type ALT-R or ALT-Q and the game will
respond.
