Re: Floppy booting issues

Normal DOS works (I tried several version from 5 to 6.2). IMHO there are more important things to do than to bother about not working W9x boot disc. Even if somebody does not have any other boot discs, there are several places on internet where you can get bootdiscs for various DOS version (search - …

The device name is more descriptive, but number is shorter. What about this: - if it is a number then take it as number - if it is not number, take it as device name Listing of MIDI devices is a good idea - it will save some explanation to newbies where to find out what to put there. Mirek
Re: HELP! Mount CD-ROM of Gabriel Knight 1

You must start the installer on CD (from the command line). There is no "autorun" in DOSBOX as in Windows. Switch to the CD: D: and start SETUP.EXE/INSTALL.EXE/whatever (I do not have the game). Mirek

Is DX9 supported under Win98/SE? I thought MS stopped supporting Win98 before DX9 came out... W98SE is still supported by Microsoft (after some protests they extended that support - on 7 (?) years since the original product release). W95 is not supported. Anyway: DOSBOX does not need the newest …

You cannot! It is just a database how games work in DOSBOX. DOSBOX web is not an abandonware site! The same goes for this forum: do not even ask here how to get any illegal content (this includes abandonware)! Mirek
Re: VESA modes in Duke nukem 3D...
Posted on 2005-01-09, 20:07
Hi, 2- Is dosbox support VESA modes at all ?? DOSBOX supports several 8 bit (256 colors) modes (I think up to 800*600). I do not have the game, so I cannot tell you what is the problem. Generally - VESA is slower, which may be a problem for 3D shooters. I think that there are some Windows ports for …

I think it is ok, as long as there are not many off-topic threads like that and as long as it has something to do with DOSBOX. Alternatively you can use DOS/Milliways/PC forums. Keep your messages to one thread. Authors of some Glide wrappers use VOGONS in similar way (zeckensack, dege) - using each …

DOSBOX supports only a few 8 bit (256 colors) modes. My guess is that the game probably uses more colors. Mirek

DOSBOX developers are from the Europe and the North America, so they have no experience with Chinese (they cannot read Chinese anyway)... Maybe somebody from China (or Taiwan) could look into this and submit a patch. I have heard that recently the number of people in China reached 1.3 bilions so I …

This is really strange, check that you are not starting two different executables (I think you do - different one in every system - you need DOS executable for DOSBOX !!!). If not then it is probably a Windows program which is not liked by the newer Windows (though I have never seen "This program …
Re: International keyboard layout: key missing?

Indeed...non-US keyboard support sucks right now. In 0.61, german keyboard layout worked out-of-the-box, but I have not yet been able to get it working properly in 0.63 (the mapper is next-to-useless). This needs to be fixed! Before saying the next time what sucks or not read README and search …

You can enter this information into the game database on the DOSBOX site yourself. No sound: no idea, did you configure everything ok and tried all different soundcards? Slowness: it is a relative thing. There are settings in DOSBOX influencing speed. Also there is also a vast difference how a game …
