Hi, I'm having trouble getting Ripper to work in dos box .63 i've tried running it with the various flags i.e. \v3 and have installed the 1.05 patch. the game runs in XP normally but with choppy sound. I've tried two different soundcards a sb live! and the c-media sound card on my mobo.

When I attempt to run the game in dosbox the setup simply crashes dosbx with no explanation and the game exe i get a dos4gw error: exception 0Bh segment not present at 180:00 0B8001

If anyone has any suggestions how to get this game to run in dosbox or know of a solution to the choppy sound in XP I'd appreciate it if you let me know.
Cheers.

I've also tried vdmsound but am having trouble with that also. I can run the setup fine in vdms but the game exe leaves me looking at a blank screen. any ideas?

Don't have the game so can't really help but try hitting the Search button at the top of the page, type in "ripper" and read each of those threads. There's info on univesa, running ripper in DosBox and Vdmsound so hopefully you'll find a solution.

Try a cvs-build of dosbox (see the development forum), it
might work then.
Also be sure to try the different core-settings in dosbox.conf.
