Pretty much my problem is related with the PC Speaker emulation on 0.65 of DOSBox and Commander Keen 1-3. The games work perfect, but I noticed that the PC speaker sounds are a bit choppy. I remember them sounding a lot smoother than this on an older build of DOSBox and on my now long gone 386.

Is there anyway I can fix the sound so it doesnt sound choppy? It is most noticeable when you first enter the level select map or when you exit a level.

On an unrelated note, does Keen Dreams have joystick support? This seems to be the only Commander Keen game that wont detect my USB gravis gamepad. Every other DOS game detects my joystick just fine, which makes me wonder if there even is joystick support in the game?

I use D-Dend as my frontend, with DOSBox 0.65. Joystick is enabled for Keen Dreams in DOSBox.
