I have been running DOSBOX on a 37" LCDTV as a second monitor. I don't recall trying to use full screen, because if I set the window size to one of the 3x modes, it is quite large enough for the limited resolution of old DOS games. The 3x window keeps the old 4:3 screen ratio which is what I want …

Now that's what I call fast service. Donation made. 😁

I was wondering myself if it had something to do with the PowerPC chip in the G3 and G4 iBooks. I know for example, that Dosbox 0.74 for Ubuntu has no such error when running on an Intel system. Don't have access to an Intel Macbook right now.

I could possibly come up with another old iBook like this. But I'm in central USA, and I think the Dosbox crew is in Europe? Shipping might be an issue. Send me a private message if you consider it worth doing.

I just acquired an old iBook and the first thing I used it for was DOSBOX for OS X. Have the same "flipped" scrambling in Tandy modes. Glad I found this thread before posting. After 8 months, is there any news? This old iBook is a little slow for VGA games, but CGA and Tandy era generally run okay. …

I know this thread is a bit old, but I just wanted to confirm that a 1.6g Atom ASUS Netbook is enough machine to run Dosbox. I'm running early 1990's games like Doom II, Commander Keen, Electro Man with soundblaster sound or even General MIDI music. No problem in a factor 2 window or fullscreen, …

I dusted off my MS QuickBASIC Bible and see it is as simple as this: OUT &H3D8, PEEK(&H465) OR 4 So I'll compile that as an .EXE and load just before running a CGA game, with DOSBOX graphics set of course to cga. I will see what happens.

I recall an EA game from 1988, Adventure Construction Set, that allowed a choice of any 4 of the 16 CGA colors when running on a Tandy. Would this be something to test this patch? Also I was wondering if it would be difficult to enable CGA palette shifting in all CGA games, maybe with a small TSR …

Is there a way in Zdosbox 0.74 to select the alternative third palette in CGA (cyan, red, white)? I was wondering if a small TSR program could be written to add palette options to CGA games.

Wow, D-Fend RL is up to version 0.7?? I have been using 0.4 for a while now and it works good for both vga and Tandy modes. Very few problems with the games I've tried so far. Looking forward to trying the latest version.

Assuming you got your original copy of Wolf3d by legal means, you still have the right to own a copy. Which means you can download it from any of the classic games sites, or bittorrent etc. The moderators here don't like the "@b@ndonw@re" word even tho DOSBOX owns the scene. I assume the moderators …

Before I try this myself, wondering if anyone has dug up some old viruses from the mid 1990's to see what they do in DOSBOX. I suppose the system's AV protection would have to be adjusted in settings to avoid deleting them. This might be a way to study old viruses without messing up one's system. …

I still have the original cd-rom on this game, and it installs and runs under most versions of Windows. But the full motion video segments of it have not run properly on anything faster than an old 486, about 10 years ago. The video just skips right to the end of the segment, while the audio plays …

This game works without any difficulties (DOSBOX 0.72) on two different laptop PC's, one running Vista with Nvidia graphics and the other XP Home with ATI Radeon. Since the game's resolution is 640x480x256, the default DOSBOX settings give a stretched picture in fullscreen mode. This can be fixed by …

The abandonware version of Primal Rage runs fine in DOSBOX with sound, but it is only the 4 meg version of the game. I just found an original cd copy of the game but having trouble getting it to run. It looks like the cd has 8meg and 16 meg versions on it, but they both give the old error "cannot …

I've been using D-Fend Reloaded with very few problems. I like it over raw DOSBOX because I have both VGA and Tandy games running. This way I can run them all without editing the config. There is an occasional game that needs a setting tweak in D-Fend, but not in DOSBOX alone. One I recall was …

I don't know what he's talking about. I ran Jill of the Jungle without changing a single setting from other VGA games with SB. It runs just fine.

I came here for an argument! Sorry, this is being hit on the head lessons.
