Hi, I just got the same problem, and in my case, i couldn't even quit the game, i had to kill dosbox... happened on 0.61 too.

If possible, try disable the music in the game (I think there is a problem
with the adlib emulation).

Answer: Copy protection, dosbox runs it just fine ..
depending on your source you 'may' require "pp2crk.exe"...

i got the same problem...i d/l the game again from a different palce and it worked fine....i got it in Imesh!

try d/l from somewhere less...worth a try.

Happy Gaming,
Scorpion

I remember an odd problem from the old days that made POP2 much more stable in IRQ 5 as opposed to 7. You may want to try changing your sound settings. My POP2 has worked great with this setting for the past couple builds.

Cool. I'll try this.

First of all: Dosbox is really great, you have done an awesome job in providing the possibility to play old favourite dosgames. 😀

Now to the good ol' Prince2...

Same problems here, the "function" keys (alt, ctrl) don't work after some playtime... I could only save in the first pirate cave level, but after many (, many) restarts I have figured out, that the keys are disabled exactly after this level, when the cutscene is going to begin. I think it must have something to do with these cutscenes and the speech in them.

Unfortunately, the "irq 5 thing" doesnt help... 🙁

could you upload the save ?

No problem, I think this is the only file which is required for loading...

But will the game run with sound on irq 5 since dosbox emulates sb on irq 7?

prince of persia 2 should have some setup.exe as far as i know
