ah crap and i cant edit messages either. i mean setup.exe not install.exe

okay, forget this, it works. but i'm leaving the original post here for reference. the problem was that the install.exe program will store the STARDUST.CFG file in a subdir called STARDUST wherever you specifiy it. so if you run "install c:\stardust" then you get the file in c:\stardust\stardust\ …

is this supposed to run? anyone got it running okay? i've tried different core, memory and sound settings and i just get ILLEGAL INTERRUPT #00 eax = 0F424000 esi = 00000032 flags = 3202 ds = 0033 ebx = 00000007 edi = 00000000 eip = 000395FC es = 0033 ecx = 0004F750 ebp = DFFFED00 cs = 002B fs = 0000 …

aha! known problem then, no worries, thanks!

tried soundblaster, adlin, roland, kevin....all to no avail. i assume it works fine for you? or are you guessing?

just tried that, makes no difference at all 🙁

hiya, anyone played flashback (floppy version) on dosbox 0.61? it runs fine but at a slow speed, and the music is slow. cycles and frameskip isnt helping, my cpu is P4 2.0ghz. i can play several other games like syndicate without woe. is this a known issue?
