As the story unfolds, Tifet uncovers a diabolical plot of deception and treachery. It becomes very personal when her adoptive father contracts the disease. Your character is Tifet, a young priestess and a student of medicine, who sets out to find the cure for the horrific epidemic which is spreading rapidly throughout the city population. The game takes place in the city of Heliopolis, the City of the Sun, which was the center of learning and one of the most important capitals of Egypt in 1350 B.C. Offering historical background and facts about Ancient Egypt, it has been categorized as edutainment as well as an adventure game. This game actually takes place earlier in time than its predecessor. Typically the symptom of a BIOS battery needing to be changed is the computer forgetting the time, but it can also 'forget' other settings that can cause boot problems if the default settings aren't compatible with your hardware setup.Although named Egypt 2 there are only a few similarities between the first game, Egypt 1156 B.C. The BIOS battery is a little coin battery that is easy to replace. If it boots to a black screen and you hear the fans, you leave it running that way and wait a few minutes, then reboot and this time it's successful, that's a pretty good sign the power supply is the issue. Symptoms can vary, but commonly a failing power supply will cause problems at startup, with the computer taking extra time to boot, or not detecting components properly (such as booting to a black screen because the video card needs more power than it's getting). In my experience it's usually the power supply that goes bad. You should be able to preserve the Windows 7 installation as well as your data. If you think the problem is the hard drive, make a drive image on a 2nd hard drive. My fault for not taking better care of it! My Win 7 machine feels like it is on it's way to the graveyard also. Jenny's review says that the Dreamcatcher version is already patched. I don't see it now but it shows on my copy which I printed in 2007. Apparently there used to be a link to it in the walkthrough. Witchen's walkthrough says version 1.01 and says to apply the patch.

I have the Dreamcatcher/Adventure Co 2 CD game. Big Fish says it's compatible so if that is true, that's probably the easiest way to go but I had hoped to play it in the XP. I do have Egypt II from Big Fish and it is downloaded on my Win 7 computer. I didn't have any problem playing Egypt 1156 BC in the XP (installed and ran as 98). Either way, it crashes to desktop at the end of the opening scene. I tried installing and running as 98 and without any different compatibility (just as XP). Does anybody remember what the patch was supposed to fix? I cannot get the game to play in my XP.
