Installing on 64-bit versions of Windows
Obsidian is a 32-bit game but its installer is 16-bit; you will need to install the game on a 32-bit version of Windows (e.g. in a virtual machine) and then copy the files back to the 64-bit system. When the filed are copied over to a Windows 7 64-bit machine this method doesn't even with several compatibility options selected. It simply starts a black window that does nothing.
Windows XP Setup
Install Obsidian and then set the windows color display to 16-bit. You can also set the executable for Obsidian to have resolution 640 x 480, but it will force you to the resolution when the game starts regardless.
