I have gotten MOO2 to run with win 7 64 bit.
First I had it installed on a computer using windows xp and I copied the micropose directory to the program files (x86) directory.
I then copied the dplayx.dll file from the windows\sysWOW64 directory and renamed it dplay.dll and put it back in the sysWOW64 directory (be sure the dplayx.dll file is still there)
I then created a batch file in notepad
TASKKILL /F /IM "explorer.exe"
cd C:\"Program Files (x86)"\Microprose\Orion2
start /w C:\"Program Files (x86)"\Microprose\Orion2\Orion95.exe
start C:\Windows\explorer.exe
I named it MOO2.bat
MOO2 now runs great
I wish I could take credit but Lord_Xorn @ MOO2 DPLAY.dll error - Atari Forums posted this. He also has a bat file for 32 bit versions of win 7 in that thread.
