Carmen Sandiego’s Great Chase Through Time
The Learning Company, Inc.
Carmen Sandiego and her gang of time crooks have stolen ACME’s only Chronoskimmer, and she’s using it to go back in time and pilfer goods from history. Luckily, the time portals remain open once she has used them. But, it’s up to you to track her down and return the items she has stolen so that history can go on as it should.
hi! first off, I’d like to thank you for finally uploading this wonderful game on the internet for people to enjoy! Ever since I lost the first CD of where in time is carmen sandiego a little piece of me has been dead, since I couldn’t play the game for years. Until now.
However, while the adventures of the first CD work fine (with a little help from daemontools mounting tool), for the 2nd CDs files I just keep getting the error “Game not found”. I’ve even snooped around the files and can’t figure out whats wrong! Can someone offer me any help?
I have problems opening this file using WinRaR. It says the file is corrupter and cannot be opened.
I have the same error as Sanjana, first 8 cases work fine, and i then have a “game not found” error with the 2nd CD. Why is it that the 2 isos have different filenames, “cd_gctt2″ and “cs_gctt2″?
I was able to fix that problem =) Check my post below
this is soo awesome
Hey guys, just thought I’d come back and share how I solved the problem with the 2nd CD not playing. I copy pasted the TCM Run file from the 1st CD file to the same location on the 2nd CD file. Also, be sure that the CD image is being mounted to drive E:, because I looked through the coding of the run file of the CD 2, and it checks drive E for the presence of the CD image =) =) So the 2nd CD games run, the only problem is that some of the videos of the chief talking come without the audio, but I consider that I minor price to pay for being able to enjoy this classic game! =)
But dont forget to mount the CD image first!!
Which files are the TCM run files from the first CD?
Yeah same question… Gone through every file I can find but no sign of any TCM files.
Its a .exe Run file for which the logo is a red square with ‘TCM’ written in white. I wish I could check and tell you, but I just got rid of my old windows *facepalm* Well, I’ll redownload and check if you guys really need help =)
There are no files which have TCM on the icon, there’s only a red box icon with the white letters TLC for “The Learning Company” on the setup32.exe. Is it just meant to be this file?
Sorry Sorry, TLC is what I mean =P I remembered wrong. Yep, I think this is the one. If it doesn’t work, let me know. I’m trying to remember what I did visually since I don’t have that computer anymore (made the switch to Mac less than 2 weeks ago =P)
No available space? Sounds kinda like you just have no space left on your hard drive =P Check that, and if your hard drive is full then delete some songs or videos or something.
It’s because you can’t copy files to the .iso directly.
UPDATE: Just replacing the TLC setup file with the one from the 1st CD doesn’t work, it still gives the error from the 2nd CD. You must have done something else than just that………
@Sanjana: How were you able to verify the 2nd CD’s code that it has to be loaded into E Drive?
Yeah, I’m also having trouble with winRAR, also had trouble downloading because it would randomly interrupt after it was almost done, maybe a re download is needed?
BTW, i think there is a hidden case in this game, or one that was never released. In the cinematics which shows the jailbreak, Dee Cryption (the criminal who is captured only in the Edison case) is also sprung from ACME’s prison with the other 8 VILE gang members who are acutally caught during the game. In the 1st CD, you’ll see that there are no Case #2 files, nor any Case 2 movies.
Another Question for everyone, does anyone know where we can get World and USA Carmen Sandiego games with the 3.5 version. In the v3.5 World game you could hear airport and basic phrases in different languages.
Love it. My sister and I used to play as kids all the time until our dog ate the cd. I’m going to give it to her for her birthday. Seriously, thanks so much for uploading it.
hey, i really wanna play this game and ive downloaded it several times now and have extracted it from winrar and mounted it on daemontools but i get an error saying “this file is not compatible with the version of windows you’re running. Check your computers system information to see whether you need an x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit)”
Im gonna be hoenst, i know very little bout computers and ive honestly tried anything. I would really appreciate if someone could tell me how to get this to work. By the way my computer runs windows 7
I’m having the same problem and it’s probably because we have 64bit computers. I don’t think there’s a way around it, but if anybody could help that would be really great.
So I can click on the setup32.exe and the start up screen appears. When I click install the screen disappears and nothing happens. What should I do?
I have a windows 7 64-bit.
ok, my problem is that the game can’t start. I can type my name in fine, the Intro (the part where Carmen n her folkz steal the time traveling device) plays fine, but right after the intro, the game shuts off ust like that. What is going on? plz help!!!
I have the same problem D: Can anyone help with this?

having problems with the cd2 giving me a game not found error… what do i do?
i cant get disk 2 to play any ideas please and make it kind easy to understnad i am not very smart when it comes to computers
Links are down, is anyone able to upload this to mediafire.com?
Can anyone tell me if this works for Mac? That’s all we’ve really got at my house and I’d love to play this.
… umm i think this is a stupid question, but what do you do after you finished downloading the files?
I love this game, have played it almost all my life. But since we switched to a Mac from a PC, and the disc broke, I can’t play it. I hope with all my heart that this will work on my computer.
I have the same problem as “hi”. I can enter my name and watch the beginning movie but then it closes down. Does anyone have a solution to this?
I’m pretty sure this is a 16-bit software that windows 7 is not able to handle.
WHAT THE HEL DO YOU DO WITH THESE BIN FILES????
it worked! but now it’s like ‘insert disc 1′ and I’m like -_-..do I burn a disc with power iso or what?
