I've been playing Wing commander 3, it's running just fine, but sometimes in the middle of missions it just crashes to windows and it says "Segmentation Error, SDL Parachute deployed." then boom it crashes. Does anyone know how i can fix this? I'm using a CVS version of dosbox already, it works great with WC3, the best of all of them, but it just randomly crashes. Does anyone know how to fix this by tweaking the files or is there a patch or something? I'm using winxp, 2.4 intel, pent. 4. Thanks.

Hmmm, could you try the game using DOS32A instead of DOS4GW and see if that fixes it?

Also if that doesn't work try running the game using Normal core instead of dynamic core....it'll probably run reaaaaaally slowly but see if it actually fixes the problem.

Does the DosBox console give you a more detailed error message?
