Psycho Pinball works perfectly under DOSBox 0.65

Recheck sound settings.

Make sure no files are read-only (for setup to be able to save configuration).

DOSBox default settings...

SB = A220 I7 D1

To see the rest of default settings, recreate a default config inside DOSBox. To do this, type in config -wc dosbox.conf inside DOSBox. Exit it and edit this text file with notepad.

PS - I have just recalled... Launch setup for Psycho Pinball and select "automatic selection" for sound card settings. It *SHOULD* work.

Ahh well I disabled read only attributes and ran the sound setup and chose Auto detect, now the game works with sound in XP (without dosbox) but its still very slow ,even the audio stutters because of it.. When I try to run it in DOSBox im still getting "Invalid Handle" right after the language select screen, I also see this in the status window: Warning: file creation failed: c:\oldgames\PINBALL\OTHER\HISCORES.FLG ,when I check the files the read only checkbox is cleared so not sure whats causing this error.

Then it seems you mounted something differently from the time of installation. Probably the program being unable to find the proper path.

Well I added this to the dosbox.conf file at the bottom:

mount c c:\oldgames
c:
cd pinball

The game launches so it must have the right path? ..it just crashes after asking for language (the codemasters screen appears before this). Also is this HISCORES.FLG a file created by Dosbox? I dont see this file anywhere in the psycho pinballs directories.

No. This is the hiscore file. It seems your installation is corrupted. Try reinstalling the game.

Create that file manually (empty file) and try again.

Create that file manually (empty file) and try again.

Ahh man it's so close! It wouldnt let me create the file because it already existed ,it turned out to be a hidden file so I deleted it , this worked and now the game launches and plays with proper sound (no more audio stuttering) Now the only problem is the game running at about 60% speed and also the graphics glitch with motion,for example the flippers have an interlaced look to them as well as the ball ,kind of hard to explain but when I launch the game in XP itself without dosbox these glitches dont occur but the game only runs about 20% speed with bad audio stutter.. its so close to playable in dosbox! Any other things I could try to speed it up?

Thanks for the help I've been dying to play this game... Almost there 😳
