Do you mean you can't edit autoexec.bat?

For Win9x: edit c:\autoexec.bat, find the 'PATH' line, add the directory, save & reboot the computer.

my autoexec has this in the edit part

@ECHO OFF
SET BLASTER=A220 I5 D1
LH C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\DOSKEY


IF EXIST C:\PIPOST.BAT CALL C:\PIPOST.BAT
IF EXIST C:\PIPOST.BAT DEL C:\PIPOST.BAT
SET Path=%Path%;"c:\Program Files\Norton SystemWorks\Norton Ghost\"

what would i change?

For windows 9x you can add onto the SET PATH line to your c:\autoexec.bat (any editor should work fine) which should finally look like this:

SET PATH=C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND;"C:\Program Files\Common Files\GTK\2.0\lib"

Just what is between quotes needs to be added and they are needed if the path has spaces like in this case.

Try the following:

* launch 'regedit'
* go to the branch HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\GTK\2.0\
* copy the value of the 'path' subkey
* go to the branch HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\
* create a new key named 'GTKClient.exe'
* create a subkey, type string, named 'path', set its value to '<value of path you copied>\lib'

Try launching the game again.
