I'm not entirely sure on my comp specs, but I'll say as much as I can.
Motherboard : NVIDIA
Processor : AMD 2800+
RAM : 1024mb DDR CRUCIAL
Video Card : 128mb GeForce 4 4400
Sound Board : Unknown (sorry)
OS : XP Home Edition (fully patched)
Game : Silent Service 2
Problem : Game does not start up. Upon running either Silent.bat or SS2.exe dosbox goes idle, and has to be closed.
Reproducibility : Always
Sound : default (no idea what it is though)
Video mode : No idea (it's an old game, so that may affect it)
Emu version : DOSbox 0.61
Steps taken already : Used combinations of all XP compatibility options, set read-only off. attempted to start program with EMS and XMS disabled, and using loadfix.
