I confirm:
- that I haven't found an existing compatibility report for this game.
- that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available.
Symptoms
Install game, launch, and it hangs at the DOSbox command prompt. I can confirm that Rise of the Triad: Dark War (358410) does the same thing (I will do a separate report for it), as does Blake Stone's sequel Planet Strike, according to reports, but I dont own the latter.
Reproduction
Install, launch, watch hang

Done means identifying the cause of the command-prompt hang and documenting or implementing a verified compatibility fix.
