Re: Game problems

No, I'm sorry it wasn't chris's page or the google search. That didn't lead
me to much either though. I have played the 7th Guest with no problems on
this computer. The 11th Hour is giving me grief. I went to some link, the
earthlink one, to figur out this patch thing. I click on another link and I
can't download or save this patch. First I do this...
http://www.home.earthlink.net/~infernofilecabinet1/XpSetUpWalkthroughsA_E/11thHr_Setup.htm
Then I click on a link to get the patch and get this.
http://dlh.net/cgi-bin/dlp.cgi?lang=eng&sys=pc&file=11h242.zip&ref=ps
no help to me.

Hi Slemmenes,

When you say you tried to go to Chris's page, do you mean Google?
If so, were you unable to find any sources for that file in your search?

|| 11th Hour has been made to work using Windows 2000 compatibility mode:
