eL_PuSHeR:
Do you not get tired of moving every single post in this forum to the DOSBox forum?

As I said in another thread can someone not rearrange the index page slightly so people find the right forum first time?

I turned the sound off, also tried several other options. I am using two different downloads of the game - they work with an online version of DOSbox (version .72) and it works with that but many times I am not online and unable to access the game otherwise.

Thanks for the help!

only for a very brief period of time.
they replaced with a normal build later
(and it was a normal build to begin with, it was just a "wrapper" around the dosbox executable.)
