Apologies if this already been addressed somewhere, I did a thorough search and came up with nothing.

Here's my specs:

Motherboard: ASUS P5QL PRO 775 P43 RT
Processor: Intel Core2 Quad Q6600 2.4GHz
4 GB DDR2 800 MHz RAM
NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GT 512 MB RAM
Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS
Windows Vista Ultimate SP 1

When I try running Space Quest 4 or 5 (didn't try 6) in fullscreen using DOSbox 0.72 the game starts slowing up badly. The sound and graphics all slow to a crawl.

This happens anytime I run the games in fullscreen. In a window they work fine. SQ1-3 all work fine in fullscreen.

I've tried messing around with fullresolution setting in the config but no dice. Not sure what else to try. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Changing the output= to overlay did the trick.

Thanks DosFreak!
