I read on the DOSBOX website that the new version 0.72 should be able to run Battlespire (The Elder Scrolls Legend: Battlespire) and wanted to try if it would work now on my PC as it never worked in earlier versions of DOSBOX.
I use Dfend Reloaded and I already have followed the instructions to be able to play the game from the harddisk instead of from the CD-ROM here:
http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Battlespire:Technical_Info
However I do get nothing but either a black screen, a click of the monitor and am back to Dfend Reloaded - or on another try a black screen that stays untill I reboot the machine 😕
This is the configuration text that Dfend puts out after I used the wizard to make a profile and modified memory used to 63 MB:

Is there anything obviously wrong that it won´t work?
