Hi, Is anyone able to play Oxyd on Windows XP? I downloaded the compressed "oxydmg" package for the PC and was able to launch Oxyd. However Oxyd (PC) then ...

Hi, I'm playing OXYD with sound in WinNT 5.0 (2000) env. All you have to do is to format a virtual DOS partition (FAT or FAT32) and create a WIN98 ...

Hi Cassady, I had the same problem with my mac (I upgraded from a G3 to a G4 and got exactly the same messages) running Oxyd Magnum - however when I downloaded...
Elizabeth, Here's the link to the Oxyd group. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/oxyd/ Jeff ... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? ...
Jeff, Thanks for the link. By the way, I have "The Oxyd Book" which I bought separately and I cannot make head nor tail of it. Can anyone suggest how I can...
Hi Liz, The "magic pieces" that block your path after level 10 will have 3 digits in the top half of the piece (the page # in the Oxyd book) and 2 digits on...
Thank you to everyone who replied to my post. I got the games working at last. Seems that the copy of Oxyd Magnum which Dongleware sent me near their last...
Hello! I recently acquired another version of Bolo! The CD I got is PC only, though the game has instructions for macintosh as well(go figure!). It's like...

Hi. It's interesting to see that it was a sequel; though I'm curious why it doesn't support saving and is so much easier. I got it off eBay, and it is just...
Last month I asked if anyone knew why the "glass pieces" were so difficult to break sometimes...now I realize that it's the CRACKED pieces that I'm having...
You tried the hammer and it didn't work? Usually the laser will crack certain blocks and then you need to hit them with the hammer to get rid of them. Tell me ...
Thanks for your help, Jeff. I have been unable to completely break the cracked pieces in Level 55 (single-player landscape)...there's probably a hammer...
Hi Fred, are you talking Oxyd level 55? I just opened that game and there are no blocks the break on that level, just a laser and many gates to open by...
Hi Fred, I tried level 55 and got the same results as Bonnie. Are you sure it's level 55? PerOxyd or Oxyd? Usually when you can crack blocks with a laser you...

I'm SO sorry to all of you who have been trying to help...I have asked for a brain for Christmas this year. I'm sure you're all hoping that I'll get one. I...
It likely will help to post some image of that level. JPEG or GIF would be just fine. The laser blew away any crackable stone like a charm on Level 55 of...
Hi, actually after I went back and tried to play level 55 Per Oxyd again and I am having the same problem. The laser doesn't do away with the block, there are...
Thanks for your input Bonnie, it's a relief to hear that someone else on a Mac is having this problem; but WAIT...it gets "weirder": If I situate the first two...
It's kind of hard to understand what exactly you're doing, so I'll tell you how it worked on the PC version. I posted a screen shot (the 2nd one) of level 55...
