PSPICE has its own spead diagnostic tool. With DOSBOX on windows 8 it says info_dosbox.txt and on XP it says info_xp.txt. What are the best settings in the config file for me?

Hey, the title of this forum is "Having problems with a specific game or application?" I solved my problem by saying core=normal instead of auto in the config file.

If I don't ask a graphic display, PSPICE works fine. If I ask a display it doesn't show up and the DOSBOX window remains struck. I can't even do ^C to go back to the prompt.
