Dosbox or what os?

DosBox, I'm on Vista,

U7 will not boot up, sometihng about a progresser

best you follow the 60 seconds guide 60 seconds guide to getting your game to run in DOSBox
The games can be copied from the Ultima Collection (if you have that). U7 needs ems set to false in dosbox.conf. All Ultima games work fine in Dosbox (except u9 of course). Alos read the dosbox readme for what to do when a game is too fast.

What about music, And sound Can you tell me what games have and don't have it.

Manuals are on the cd, sound needs to be configured by running the game install or setup program, not uc setup.

How do I do that, I coppyed the ENTIRE cd to my Computer, now what do I do? I been using drag and drop and that seems to be working

To limited success.

Read and follow the 60 seconds guide. No use answering you if you don't follow what I write

It would help If i UNDERSTOOD the instructions...

Then please post what yo don't understand.

I got the Cd mounted but it doesnt have an INSTALL in the cd, and some of the ULTIMA games don't come with it

I can't INSTALL the games I am looking at a list of things with DIR

how do I open a folder in the CD once I'm in D?

cd folderName

where "folderName" is a sub folder on the CD-ROM. "cd" stands for change directory

ok, don't follow that part of the guide. copy the games to your hd, mount he top folder (c:\dosgames for example) then cd zto the game and there start setup or install.

How do I go up one Directory? Ultima1 doesn't have an install file.

Hehe, I think you need to read some kind of "DOS quick start guide".

cd ..

That goes up one level.

Hey retro game do you know what Ultima's have music?

Just as an idea - you could click here to go to the mobygames ultima series page, and then click on the DOS game titles that you have, and then click on the "tech specs" link on the left hand side. It should list what sound cards are supported. If it lists something like Roland LAPC-i or MT-32, etc then the game will have music.

If it says PC Speaker, then it's unlikely it will have music - if it does, it will suck! Eg, I looked up Ultima 3, 4 and 5, and they all list PC Speaker. So, probably no music. I also looked up U6, and it listed music sound card hardware. Yes, I remember, I tested this game's music on a GameBlaster - sounded quite good! 😀

Edit: PC Speaker music sounds like beeps. Primitive, but it is music. So, I was incorrect above when I said that if the game only supports PC Speaker, the game won't have music.

for some reason my sound is normal a 3000 Cycles, but my movements are blurred, any idea how to fix?
