Re: Betrayal at Krondor in XP

in DOS
Just make sure, in LaunchPad, to enable EMS. If you still get the error, then also disable DPMI (DOSX) and CD-ROM (MSCDEX) support from the "Advanced" properties. V. That's exactly what I just tried. Perhaps XP is different enough from NT4 to make it "tricky" instead of "straightfoward." I don't …
