Welcome to the forum!
Please tell us a bit about your setup - what operating system are you using, what kind of sound card, etc.
When you got it to work before, was it on this same computer, or a different one?
At what point does the game freeze?

I'm using Windows ME and my sound card I think is NVIDIA Audio Codec Interface.
When the game worked before it was on my old computer which I think was a 586 with Windows 95.
The game freezes basically as soon as you start the game.
Is this a DOS game? If yes, have you tried quitting to the DOS prompt and running it that way?
I don't have WinME so I'm not sure if I'll be able to help.

Hi sorry for resurrecting this thread and for not answering back. I got busy with school and soon after that my computer went on the fritz, I lost all my bookmarks so I forgot about this forum. Until today when I was looking around still trying to get Zork to work.
Anways quick update i have Windows XP. I've tried DosBox (which I don't know anything about and very hard to figure out) and VDM Sound. And still nothing.
I love this game can anyone help me? Walk me through DosBox perhaps tell me what i'm doing wrong?
