Ominous Horizons General Technical Issues:

THE GAME WON'T RUN AFTER INSTALLATION

Q: I am having problems after I install the game. It just freezes at the Genesis 3D screen.
A: This is easy to fix! Just go to the "Program Compatibility Wizard" in your accessories menu. Using that tool, just set the game to run in the "Windows 98" mode. It should run great after that!
