The cga test works with my ati x1900 crossfire card, both in single and crossfire mode, but my card has some other issues with older games (tomb raider most notably). So I would say that all manufacturers are dropping some backwards compatibilty.

You need to mount your cd and a folder that you want to install the game in, then run the install program. If you are new to all this, it might be easier to download one of the "frontends" for dosbox (d-fend, dbgl, or d.o.g.). You can find links to them on the dosbox website.

When you installed the game, did it have any way to select what sound card you are using? You might try looking in the game folder to see if there is any kind of setup program for the sound. I don't own this game, so I'm afraid that I can't give you any more specific help without more detail.

So what you are saying is that even though glidos is installed in the programme folder, it still looks for the texture packs in the program files\glidos\textures folder.

maybe you should try using one of the frontends that are available, and see how that works for you.

The game works for me, both in dosbox 0.65 and the command prompt. Have you tried reinstalling the game? It may not have installed properly the first time.

Try changing the mouse sensitivity in the dobox.conf to some higher value. (I set mine to 500)
