Issues
- Run the file
INSTALL/Setup.exefrom the CD-ROM, not the one in the root directory as it does not work. - The first screen from the installer might take quite a long time to come up, be patient while everything is in these lovely shades of black...
- When prompted for installing GL Hexen, you can click the text to install both versions.
- Demo: The normal version shows the following error message Winsock IPX bind failed and exists. The GL version doesn't even start.
- Game: Starting the Intro icon from Point2Play plays the intro normaly, and then complains about Microsoft DirectX 3a not found and prompts you to install it. Which doesn't help, because it still thinks it's missing. When using the Hexen II icon, Point2Play shows the familiar error message Winsock IPX bind failed and exists. The GL version doesn't even start.

Notes
- The installation program says that I miss a Pentium 90 MHz processor or better and prompts me for installing anyway. Maybe because I did run it on a 2.0 Ghz AMD :)
