Will have a look at that, possibly only floating point stuff needs alignment which may hit that function (and the _raw is too shortcut for that...) Thanks for figuring that out 😀

Can you trace at that point? Can you check the real status and control word?

Actually it works if you first run it with normal core and then repeat with dynrec Maybe some strange caching effect, well... but at less than half the speed the 32bit dyncore does Of course, it's intended for 64bit only (or non-x86) systems.

Dynrec core crashes because data is above 4GB (something that is not true for Windows and Linux). I somewhen tried (shortly) to get it working on win64 but the problem was that memory addressing would have been awkward as the malloc'd memory for the generated code was at pretty high adresses …

Following that, shouldn't it run directly with default config? Yes, except for speed reasons (see my previous posting) or the app utilizing very special asp/dsp features of the sb16 card (very unlikely).

What sound card was it? You can find a few choices in the dosbox config file, also try using a low fixed cycles count in case the initialization code requires a rather slow pc.

dosbox version? OS? Did you correctly install the application and configure the sound card? How?

They are abandonware. You mean old software that is still copyrighted and thus illegal to download. Use your legal copy of the game and install it correctly.

The funky hack in this case being to rename the executable files. So renaming MAINPS to MAINJR and setting tandy=true should give this combination, right?

Last posting is 2 years old, but anyways. Don't remember if the configure tool required the pentium or prefetch setting either, but the game including config should run under the last release.

Ok but there would be no real system that has a ps/2 architecture along with a tandy string in the bios somewhere, would be some funky hack...

Not sure what you were referring to, but the hack puts MCGA and Tandy sound together in DOSBox A ok i see, didn't notice you're mixing the tandy sound in there. Actually, a Tandy + VGA machine type could be a useful enhancement for this and other games. Can the game detect any sort of tandy/pcjr …

No idea, if it's not explicitly stated at the posting where you found the patch or you can derive it from the path line in the diff, you have to use solution 2)

Renaming that thexderPS executable should have the same effect, not?
