Specs:

Pentium 1 200 Mhz

IBM PC-DOS 6.3

Sound Blaster 16 ISA

Ok, here is the problem, problem is that I can't get the game won't run because of a DOS4GW general fault error. I have DOS4GW. But, I do not understand why every time I try to play a true 3-D game on IBM PC-DOS, I get this stupid error. This crap did not occur on my Windows 95 machine, which is the one that is taken apart... Is there any way to solve this? Do I mess with any system config files?

If you are running native ms-dos I would swap IBM PC-DOS 6.x for IBM PC-DOS 7.0 or Microsoft's MS-DOS 6.22 - Not every ms-dos version out there is the same.
