Ok, I have seen a couple people asking about getting Warlords 2 Deluxe to work with DOSBox but I haven't yet seen any info on how to actually get it work. So, here is my situation.

I am running an Intel P4 2.0 GHz on a Gigabyte P4 Titan series MB.
I've got 512 MB of Crucial PC2700 DDR.
I have a 32 MB ABIT Siluro GF4 MX graphics card.
I have a Sound Blaster Audigy sound card.
I am running Windows XP Professional.
I am trying to get Warlords 2 deluxe to work with version 0.60 of DOSBox.
Basically it tells me I don't have enough ems memory regardless of how much free ems DOSBox says it has.

I can get the game to work fine in a regular command prompt under Windows XP but for reasons too complicated to go into I need the game to run in windowed mode rather than full screen dos mode.

If anyone can help me out, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thanks.

First of all: Sorry I can't help you. I also tried to get it work but I failed.
But PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE tell me how you get it work under WinXP. Warlords II is no problem but Warlords II Deluxe does not run on my mashine.

the call warlords 2 deluxe uses to determine your ems memory isn't supported by dosbox. We know which one it is and we know how to support it. We just haven't got the time yet to test it properly.
