Minimax, you are probably right, I don't know why I didn't see your post I'll try what you suggested to force the DOSBox resolution. All I can tell is that my laptop is very fickle about 640x480 and will snowcrash 90% of the time. -EDIT- I've tried out all the settings in the conf file and for now, …

Okay, this snow crash thing is very irritating. The LCD display is running at 48.3kHz (what does this number denote?) at 60Hz refresh rate and 1024x768 resolution. When I connect a monitor to the VGA out and shut off my laptop's display, the monitor claims that DOSBox forces the display to 31.6kHz ( …

Hey, thanks a lot for this suggestion. I had a feeling it might have been the refresh rate or something to that extent. The frustrating thing about this laptop is that it provides no monitor information or drivers. All it gives me is "plug&play monitor' and the tech-support line is automated and …

Any idea why this is happening? When I put DOSBox into fullscreen mode on my laptop, the video outputs a burned in light pattern onto my LCD and then locks it up. I have no idea how else to describe it. I can't figure this out. I can go fullscreen with all other applications, emulators, video …

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried editing the file with a hex editor but I didn't know what the values affected and it never worked. It was much simpler than I thought, I could have just changed the numbers with notepad. I'll just delete it now.

Unfortunately, I cannot find the configuration menu. This is the Martian Memorandum directory as I found on my old 80MB (yes MB) harddrive and there is no installation file.

When I run Martian Memorandum and go through a realspeech sequence (MM's revolutionary [at the time] synthesized speech) whenever I talk to anybody at all, the game completely freezes and dosbox (0.60 and CVS) and dosbox debug report nothing out of the ordinary. Just that the soundblaster DMA was …

Yes, sounds strange that you are mounting the C:\ directly as the SC2000 directory but if you can access sc2k.exe from there, then it should work. From my personal experience with both 0.60 and the CVS's, you will not be able to adequately run SC2000 under dosbox at this time with a computer of your …

Oh sorry! I forgot that I'm not supposed to ask about the CVS and feature implementation here. But yes, I'm still looking for some basic help and directions. Thanks.

Hi everybody, I just discovered the wonderful thing called DOSbox and I quickly ran to my basement to search out my stacks of floppies and ancient CDs from almost 10 years ago. I'm just itching to play everything from Manhunter to Cyberia. I just found my Starcon 2 discs and I'm happily enjoying …
