Trying to play the game Tamper:
http://www.mobygames.com/game/dos/tamper
A search showed another fellow had this issue, although it never seemed to be resolved.
Essentially, clicking 'New Game" on the menu leads to an insufficient disk space error.
I have tried setting the freesize of drive C to 5, 10, and 100 megs respectively.

cd ..
mount c .\games\Tamper88 -freesize 100
mount a .\games\Tamper88\floppy\ -t floppy
c:
cls
#cd tamper
tamper
exit
I tried mounting an empty folder as an A; floppy, in the event it expected to save to floppy. I have played with the ems, umb, and xms switches. it doesn't seem to care unless you turn ems off at which point it will refuse to launch.
I have tried simple, normal, and auto CPU types.
I have tried 4, 8, and 16 for the memsize.
I have tried launching the game from a C:, and from c:\tamper in the event the game requires being run from a specific directory.
Any other thoughts? Thank you!
