Hi there!
I am using the original old Monkey Island (no-cd version).
After I pass the copyright, i choose the difficulty. Then the game begins as usual, but after a few seconds it exits with the error: "CacheBlock overrun".

So my question: what can i do? I have a 2.4 GHZ machine with 512 DDR ram.. i tried CPU cycles 100 000 and frame skip 10 and it worked a few seconds more, but then the same error. I really don't know what to do, Simon the Sorcerer is working perfectly with 15 000 CPU cycles and no frame skip and i think its not that big different to Monkey Island.
Thanks in advance!

PS: Sorry for my bad english ^^

set core=normal in the configfile

I quote from the dosbox homepage when dosbox 0.61 was released:

Don't bother to post about games not working dynamic core or being to slow, they'll be happily deleted/ignored.

So I'm being friendly.

I would also use scumm-vm its working without problems -

Choose only the directory, and name, then start - scumm-vm does the rest

i use Dosbox only for such games as Crusader:no Regret and so - mean, Games that work ONLY in DOS-Mode
