Re: In Search Of The Most Amazing Thing

I went into the elevator, but there was no space bar? Unless you mean the two steel bars that run along each wall? All I see is buttons for floor 1-9, entrance, and the basement? I did go to the top floor, but there was no smoke room? Unless you mean the sauna, but that is more like a steam room?

Re: Dos-Box and Printer?

Yes, it is possible. DOSBox will produce PNG-dump (I think) resembling the printed page. I think you can also get it to produce Postscript. I am not sure how it works, though or where to find the documentation...

Re: How do I get into a game?

I have really old games and this computers is a P2 at 333mhz and it makes the games go fast so I got Dosbox and I can't get into a game. Please Help Me See if you can go into the BIOS (e.g. by pressing DEL, F1 or whatever) during boot. Perhaps the BIOS will allow you to slow down the CPU to 66 MHz?

I have experienced the behaviour Snover said sometimes under Windows XP. Sometimes IDE devices "lose" their DMA access and return to ancient PIO transfer mode. One easy way to fix it is the manually remove BOTH IDE CHANNELS from hardware manager and reboot. It usually fixes it. Don't know what's …

eL - is it the same with/without a media in the DVD-ROM? It could be a (long) delay while it tries to recognize the disc. Have you updated the DVD-ROM to the latest firmware? It could help...

Re: problem of using(at stage of enter " mount")

Hi ED_TA, The window with the "DOSBOX 0.6.3, Cpu Cycle:....." title is where you should be able to enter DOSBox commands. The other window is just a status window. When DOSBox starts, the main window should display a little greeting, instructing you how to use the INTRO (I think) command. And then …

Re: New dos emulator for Win XP

Posted on 2005-01-16, 23:37

in DOS
Ahemmm . This so-called "emulator" is (as far as I can see) nothing more than an boot-diskette creator and a copy of IBM PC-DOS and some Creative SoundBlaster & Audigy drivers. Probably illegal to distribute.

Re: Sound Blaster sound not playing

Posted on 2005-01-15, 15:48

Hmm - I do not get any music when the splash screen with the "Stack Overflow" logo is shown during start-up. I do get a sound effect ("hrrack, hrrack, ...")on the next screen, when the little fellow with the big nose is hacking his way into the treassure. Not sure why the music is not playing.... …

I tried using a true MS boot disk in DOSBox, and I get the error "program too large for memory" I got that error too (with standard DOSBox). I fixed it by changing memsize in dosbox.conf to 32 (default is 16 MB). That MS-DOS diskette - did you have things like HIMEM.SYS EMM386.EXE installed in your …

Re: Abandon Loader + VDM Sound

Posted on 2005-01-13, 18:02

I have no idea what that Abandon Loader is, but how about 1) Create a BAT/CMD-file to launch the game. 2) Create a short-cut to the BAT/CMD-fi.e. 3) Use VDMSound/LaunchPad to configure the game. 4) Instruct Abandon Loader to use the game short-cut to load the game. ???

Re: Floppy booting issues

Posted on 2005-01-12, 21:28

I am not complaining about this little quirk, mirek. Far from it. If it - in some future release - happens to be fixed, it will be great. In the mean time, DOSBox works fine for me for the few games I have tested.

Re: Floppy booting issues

@fish - AFAIK, Win95 do not create an RAM-drive. Only Win98 (and perhaps only the Emergency Boot Diskette) needs/creates an RAM-drive. @Carlos - I have the same problem - and this with the same image that I can boot succesfully with Bochs. I have not investigated it further, but * think * the …
