First post, by drsly
Hope someone here knows how to get this to work. This is my first time trying this emulator.
I would like to get a 386 machine to boot a standard MSDOS 6.22 1.44Mb floppy image.
Right now all I see, after the message flashed to press select for the settings, is a blank window with a tiny menu in the bottom right hand corner.
Besides that, I can navigate the menu and change options, which I can see are saved in SETTINGS.INI file.
The only clue I have was in the log file, there was a few hundred lines saying something along the lines of "nothing to do" - the log has since been deleted and atm the program won't even create one...
What's the minimum setup needed to POST? Apart from adjusting the config for execution mode and architecture, and disk options, what else is there to configure? I tried deleting the SETTINGS.INI file and loading defaults, but that didn't work. I noticed after doing this that the execution mode was set to load from the rom directory, changing it to "Use emulator internal BIOS" didn't help.
I'm using Windows 7 Home Premium (64 bit). Msys2/mingw32 build environment. Latest commit commit a4322090dd57253e3fc104940e1377420cf98ff2
Build command: make win build SDL2 mingw32
Under the buid output directory, I created folders for "disks", "logs", "music", "rom" & "soundfonts". I've copied 2x dll files: libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll and libwinpthread-1.dll (SDL2.dll was already copied during the build process).
I'm stuck for ideas. Help pls?
