The original CD works perfectly for me now - maybe a bad rip you have ?

I have to say I'm not sure what you're telling him to do. If what MrGodman exactly wrote is true, the reason it won't work is: mount d i: \ - t cdrom There's no space allowed between i: and \ Also, some games simply don't work when mounted like that or mounted at all. What I do with CD games, is …

I have the original CD version - the game works perfectly. Did you check whether the files are write protected?

Don't discourage enthusiastic people :P But yeah, it's default settings for the CVS versions. I disagree with the output though: Overlay should only be used if nothing else works well. It doesn't scale well and for people using high resolutions in windowed mode or who have an LCD screen it's useless …

I can run it perfectly - just make a CD image of the game and mount that. Also make sure to mount the CD as your D drive. The problem I have is that the game's setup won't work in DOSBOX. It gives a black screen.
Re: Kernel Update Project for Windows 98/ME

Hmm - what I'm actually looking for, is a way to get Windows 98 running on modern systems. That is, make it so my graphics card works, mobo drivers work, soundcard drivers work, etc. This way I could still run Windows 98 games - it's become a bit of a nightmare getting certain old games to work. …

Buy a new HD. Stick your IDE CD drives on the IDE controller as God (or your mobo manufacturer) intended. You can buy PCI IDE controllers but why crappify your mobo with useless junk? It may also be possible to buy an IDE->SATA adaptor for your HD but I've NEVER had good experiences with those. …

Oooh, I see. That's so cool...So I would just need to execute the .exe file, right? And, do you know (for curiosity) why install isn't necessary? By the way, I just read that another way of installing some programs is through Autoexec.bat. Could you tell me briefly how that needs to be done in …

Just to make sure, could you disable the joystick support in the conf file? Maybe DOSBOX is getting a false reading from any of your USB devices. This happened to me with my drawing tablet which got detected as a joystick. Otherwise, I'll have to test the game myself if I can find it anywhere.

Try reducing the mouse sensitivity to minimum - it's in the dosbox.conf file. Try a setting of "1" instead of 100. Also, make sure there are no joysticks connected - Cyberia uses both.

If 10 000 is at dynamic core you have some serious problems. My XP 64 3000+ could push 15000 cycles on normal and 80 000 on dynamic.

DOS programs are usually just a case of copy/paste - there's no drivers or register for the huge majority. Only for certain programs that make use thorough use of the system there's a few entries in config.sys.

xcopy doesn't exist in all DOS versions though - I dunno about FreeDOS.

I'm afraid those cracks don't work. Possibly because I have the Dutch version.
Re: Numerous issues with Wing Commander 3

Why are you running it at only 10000? Wing Commander 3 needed very powerful computer to run well - a 486 DX2 66 or even a Pentium. 10 000 cycles, i feel, will be much too slow and your CPU can handle MUCH more. Try 40 000 cycles in dynamic mode. Also, movies played just fine for me - this may be …

I'll try this for myself when I get home later today - I have CD-Man on an old shareware disk somewhere at home so I can test that too - it might be different from the versions floating around.

Hi mates. I have Linux , and have downloaded Free DOS , in order to install it in other partition. But before doing so, since I remember practically nothing from when I was a little brat and used DRDOS, I want to ask something: I have read that the way of making FreeDOS detect a CD drive is through …
Re: Could high CPU 'cycles' burn my CPU?

Indeed - you should always stress test your CPU when you buy or build a new computer. In some (rare) cases, the cooling is not enough and may damage or shut down your system - in other (less rare) cases, after time, cooling starts to deteriorate - dust in the fans, bad airflow in the case because of …
