Has anyone tried this title? It uses VESA and DOS/4G but I have reports of it working under Windows 98 in a DOS box.

The 4GW driver loads and it makes an attempt to start (black screen) but I get dumped out.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Okay, this isn't even related to VDMSound, for one. VDMSound is a sound card emulator for Windows NT/2K/XP.
Secondly, you haven't given us ANY INFORMATION on your system. There's a REASON there is a thread at the top of EVERY FORUM that says "read this before posting"!!

I'm closing this thread. If you wanna try again, and give us PROPER information, please do so.

Yes, it’s my fault.

Good news. Apparently Ken got it to work:

I got it to load finally using the new DOS4GW.EXE plus NOFLB.COM (not to
mention MOUSECTL.)

There is no sound <sigh> but I'm not too worried about it. I set it up
as a standard SB and the sound setup program seemed to like it well
enough.

I'm going to assume it was in 2000/XP, then. SNOVER. *ahem*

Pity he can't get sound working, though. One to look at, then.

Ken Silverman, though?
Why would he mention reports of it working in Win98 if he was using another OS?

No, I made that mistake too. Ken == the poster. He must've emailed Vlad privately when you closed the thread. Check his profile out, Mr Admin. (and then , um, Google.) See? Ken! 😀
