try mount c c:\ cd world xeen OMG. That was the solution. So simple it's impossible for a regular person to think of, yet so elegant, like a theorem proof. You really are a genius. No wonder you get paid the big bucks. If that had come from anyone but you, I would have backed out as soon as I saw …

Kashmir - You must overwrite the original XEEN.EXE & XEEN.DAT in your C:\World\ directory from the files in the worldu.zip archive for the patch to work correctly, it looks as if you are extracting the files into a parent directory. Oh, man. I really thought that would work. I replace the .exe file …

Well, first I installed it through regular DOS Install it WITHIN dosbox if you want to run it in dosbox. Oh, I know it's hard to read a long laborious email to the end. But at the end of the email you are quoting, I reported that I did install it through DOSBox after it didn't work with the DOS …

just an aside looking at the screenie you posted, have you tried using the HQ3x scaler? It's pretty resource intensive but really really smooths out the pixels. An excellent face lift. Thanks for the suggestion. That's a picture of my cat I took with my cell phone. I'm not so big on photography. I …

How did it get there? Well, first I installed it through regular DOS and tried to run Xeen through DOSBox. I matched the IRC to the one on my computer, which is 5. Used the 220 setting. I selected Soundblaster.. damn I wish I'd had Sound blaster 15 years ago because that accursed Ultrasound nearly …

I am so happy to see another thread about Xeen. I have been trying to get help with Xeen on a Windows '98 machine, and they started making fun of me for using an old OS, so I moved to my XP machine. How did I set up my folders? Path for the game is C:\WORLD\XEEN.EXE How did I mount my drives under …

We-uhlll (pronounced like Doctors 4 and 10), we do brag about our 15-year-old games. Why not our 15-year-old operating systems? I still have a laptop that runs Windows '95, although I haven't powered it up for a while. BTW, I can't get WoX to run under DOSBox on my Win XP machine either. 😜

I hadn't tried the DOSBox CDROM mounting commands with -ioctl or -aspi because they were for a different version of Windows. Of course they didn't work with '98 SE. 😢

I found VOGONS looking for support for DOSBox. I tried everything I could find about running WoX with DOSBox, and none of it worked, so I decided to resort to real DOS. I've been playing with the LH commands. I seem to be failing to remember how to load the mouse and the CDROM into HIGHMEM. DOSFreak …

So sorry for the lack of clarity. I am trying to run World of Xeen from the CDROMs. The discs I have seem to be the ones that won't run under DOSBox, so I am trying to reconstruct how to free up enough conventional memory to run the game under DOS. I remember being able to do that when I bought the …

Thanks for providing guidance to a newbie. Darn, I spent three days reading forums and FAQs so I would follow the proper posting rules. It really does take experience to learn a community's norms. My question is about how to get the WoX game to run in DOS since I can't run it in DOSBox. I saw …

I just noticed I forgot to say in my previous post about trying to get Xeen running that the old Pentium IV computer is running Windows '98. 😘

I am so happy to find a usergroup that is just for people who love to play the old DOS games. I love gaming but I can't stand these first-person shooters that seems to be all you can get now. And forget me going interactive or playing online! I'm such a fuddy-duddy. Well, I have been combing the old …
