    Greets, I'm running on a Thinkpad 390x with Windows 2000 SP2, 512 mb ram and 1gb swapfile.  Upon unzipping and configuring the Launcher, I get the above error.  I have tried moving the files to the root of the drive (first tried it unzipped on the desktop) and achieved the same results.  Any suggestions?

      You must have a valid IWAD file like doom.wad or doom2.wad in the legacy directory, or you need to specify where the file is located with the -IWAD command line switch.

      Hope it helps.

      Greetings once again,

      I reinstalled legacy and the wad files that are listed here on sourceforge, and still get the error.  I also tried it out with the sample .wads and it yields the same error.

      I'm getting the same error.

      I also run W2K SP2, with an athlon 1 gig, voodoo 3, and 384 MB of memory.
