I have been trying for the better part of an hour now and I cannot put the blood pipette into the reagent.I have the cogs but the red line is going through them.Any ideas please? Gwenda

Hi Gwenda,

Are the reagents still in the refrigerator? You need to put them into test tubes before you can use them. Pick up a test tube and click it on a reagent and place it in the rack, then repeat for the other reagent.

no, the reagents are in the dish. I get the blood in the pipette but as soon as I get it near the dish, it won't play. Gwenda

Did you mix the reagents together? If so, that won't work. Use a pipette of yellow reagent on one dish, and then a pipette of blue to the other dish, and then add a pipette of blood to each.

They are in separate dishes exactly as the walkthrough.Is there any chance of a saved game please. Its either that or I start it again. Gwenda

Gwenda,

See that the reagents and the blood are in test tubes.
Each of the tubes have pipettes.
Then place reagents first on the plate.
Then add the blood.

Every thing you have suggested has been done and it will still not work.

I shall go back to the beginning of the game and start again.

Regards Gwenda

The end of the puzzle saved game is sent.

thanks for that Mag, but I am having trouble loading the game. I downloaded it off the internet and I can't get into the data file. Not to worry I will do it again as it is annoying me. If I find something I will let you know.Thanks for all your trouble yet again. Gwenda

If you're using XP, download the file to desktop.
Open Microids\Dracula 3\Users\Profile1 folder.
Check the last number of the files.
Download the sent saved game file to desktop - Renumber the file to be the last in your saved game files.
Place it together with the Profile 1 folder files. Close folder. Play-load as usual.
Good luck.

I have no trace on my p.c of microids or dracula3. I have even done a search. The only place it mentions dracula is in the download manager from the firm I got the game off.No mention of Microids and the data files just go blank when you click on them.I have done it over again with the same result.Gwenda

Try Kheops or the name of the company you downloaded it from. I hope you find it.

It is Microids but it doesn't appear on the program. I don't understand why there is nothing in the data. I have written to the company I downloaded it from but to no avail yet. Thanks for everything. Gwenda

Open My Computer - C drive - Program files and see if there is a Microids or Kheops folder in there.

I finally found it under Legacy and it is installed thank you so much.Gwenda

Glad you found it, Gwenda. Enjoy the game now.

I Carry on and think I am doing quite well, for a left handed person who can only use one finger on her right hand.I then get to the cave! Need I say any more other than is there a saved game for the pentagram please? I am seriously thinking of giving up gaming now. It is getting physically too hard.Sorry for being a whinge. Gwenda

The pentagram saved game is sent. I'm sorry you are strained now.

Thanks yet again Mags. Gwenda

Here i am again. I cannot get out of the office in Budapest. I have the books, done the puzzle, opened the safe and got wax tube, Got the syringe and I can't think of anything else to do, but it won't let me leave the office. Yet more help please! Gwenda

Gwenda, what day are you on please???

Did you use the enlarger on the vase and read the words on the rim?

I have returned to Budapest to find the prof dead on the floor. I have as far as I can see done everything including the vase. Yet another bad day! Sorry, Budapest day 5 .Gwenda

This is a really pernickety section of the game, Gwenda. If you have checked against the walkthrough and cannot see what you might have missed, I'd be happy to send you a saved game to get you past this point.

Thanks Rushes I would be grateful Gwenda
