Hello. Just discovered dosbox cause I wanted to play Stonekeep again after all these years. But I am having a problem. I do the mounts normally, I install the game, I set the sound/music in the setup and everything works fine. But when I run the game it isnt playable at all, eventhough I speed up the game (control F8+F12). The sound isnt smooth, even I cannot move normally my char. And the mouse is responding very bad. When I roll it, it rolls fine, then it stops for some secs then it rolls faster than normal.
Anyone knows bout this game simulation or can help?
Thanks a lot.
A Stonekeep great fun

Edited:
Bah forgot to tell you that I am running DosBox in WINXP sp2 and of course I use the latest version 0.65

There is a file called dosbox.conf in your dosbox folder. It's the configuration file. You can edit it using a text editor. Search for core= and cycles= inside and change them to core=dynamic and cycles=auto respectively.
