Hello,

I have downloaded and installed Dosbox 0.70 on my machine to play Discworld 2. Normally, I would install VDMSound, but Vista doesn't recognize this application (there had been some brawl about this in the forums, but it all comes to Dosbox). Now, I had a complete game disc and installed it from the disc, then tried to run the game and it was running fine at first, but it couldn't locate my disc. So I decided to use Dosbox too, since this thing can be configured to emulate drives even thought they are not real drives (like, isos mounted on virtuals). But now I'm having a video problem. More specifically, when I start 'dw2.bat', the sound is there, the game seems to be running, but I don't see ANYTHING. The screen's just PITCH BLACK.
I have tried to emulate it from a different drive and am still getting the same thing. Any ideas why this happens?

Thanks,

Shadiac

Did you run setup.exe, uvconfig.exe? The game works fine for me in 0.70.
