How I got MM7 to run on my computer

    Here's what worked for me in WinXP:
    1) Disable sound acceleration
    2) Disable 3D video, and enable software video
    3) Make sure Disable3DSound really is set at "1" in regedit
    4) Make your own shortcut to MM7.exe
    5) Do NOT run in compatibility mode

    I also copied new versions of binkw32.dll and smackw32.dll to my MM7 folder during my quest to get it working; I'm not sure if that helped it to run, but it's not hurting. I got all this info from this board.

    It's a bit sad that this game doesn't look as good on my fancy new shiny computer as on my old one because of the 3D video hardware problem, but at least it runs.
