Hi, I have big problem...
I've 1942: PAW Gold Version. This version is a mixed Windows 3.1/DOS version. Mutimedia part (and installer) works only in Windows 3.1 or higher, game only in DOS. I've installed this game under Windows 3.1 running on DOSBOX 0.72, and after launch I can't see intro, which is in AVI-format, but this isn't most important. More important is, I can't launch game. I'm booting Windows 3.1, click on PAW Gold shortcut, intro (but without AVI) appears, after this I see option screen, and when I click on option "1942 game", I've got a message "Clicking on play game will cause program to exit to DOS and automatically star the game. If the program returns to Windows without starting the game, you do not have enough conventional memory to run the game."
After click on "PLAY GAME" I hear sound of closing Windows, and...Windows is loading - I don't have enough vonventional memory. Game requires 580 KB. I can launch DOS-part without problems (after DOSBOX start, I have 633 KB conventional memory. But Windows must take some of this memory, because the game doesn't start after multimedia-part. Can somebody tell me, how I can freeing some conventional memory under Windows 3.1? I've googled, but It doesn't help...this is full version of PAW Gold without any crack or somenthing...
