Yea, I did just continue and it's fine, I think it was confused because the RAM was 2GB not 2048MB so it thought as 2 is smaller than 32 it's not enough.

Wolf3D was a great game when it came out. AOE2 was fun too. I preferred adventure games a la Indiana Jones : fate of atlantis, day of the tentacle, monkey island, etc.

Maybe 32mb was rare those days. I love the old SIM City's and Civilization games they were the classics
