Hi, I am trying to run the game Get Lost by Tom Bombadil's Software Emporium & House of Curiosities
Full version available here: http://www.sleepfuriously.com/getlost/getlost.html
The game runs perfectly in DOSBOX but I can't get it to run on my real MSDOS hardware.
I can configure the sound fine using the SETCFG.EXE and I can hear the sound okay.
When I start the game with GETLOST.EXE, I get the intro sequence with the house and the title screen with music in the background.
It's supposed to fade to black and show the level select, but the game exits after the fade to black with the error Tom says Whoops 21020. If I disable my sound card in the options or remove it entirely, I get the error Tom says Whoops 8002
I also get 21020 if I run getlost.exe after holding right shift after booting.
Does anybody have any advice please? 😀 the only other mention of Get Lost that I can find on this forum is my own post from six years ago diagnosing a broken sound card (which I've since replaced 😀 )
