They're internal commands because they modify the internal state of the command interpreter program. You can't expect a completely different COMMAND.COM to be able to change anything about the currently running shell. That is helpful. To a point, and I guess the next statement makes it even more …

Maybe I misunderstand your statement "...and you're trying to use unsupported commands from MSDOS." PROMPT is an internal command in COMMAND.COM and CMD.EXE in all versions of MS-DOS, Windows 9x all thru Windows 11. My implementation is adding ANSI codes to manipulate color and add more data to the …

I probably did hit a higher speed CPU. I might play with PCem some more. As for the path, I entered in the [autoexec] section of the conf: SET PATH=C:\WINDOWS;C:\DOS;C:\QB45;Z:\;C:\ You are saying I should just use SET PATH=C:\;C:\DOS;%PATH% or SET PATH=C:\;C:\DOS;Z:\ ? (yeah, removing some things …

As asked, can the Z drive contents be replaced? Or bypassed somehow? The only thing I can find on VOGONS is this : https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?t=20265 I am no coder and wouldn't know how to go about it on my own. I was using DOSBox-X, but it proved to have some odd glitches that went away …

Well, not exactly sure what I did. I generated a new and clean conf for both DOSBox and DOSBox-x. I made only a few changes to both. Too many to list. DOSBox works just fine now. DOSBox-x is still having issues. I think I'll sit on this one till either 0.75 comes out or some more changes get DOSBox …

This is odd, and I may be looking int he wrong direction or just getting more and more confused as I try to figure this out... and it is late. I have recently gotten back into gaming on DOSBox and have once again dug out some of my games and started getting them installed and playable. I have the …

O.O ... :: palm to face :: consider the issue resolved. That worked. Thank you ripsaw8080. The problem wasn't different settings, I didn't bother to set them BEFORE archiving the game. I never change the settings.

I totally forgot about loadfix! Unless I missed something, here's what I did after your suggestion, eL_PuSHeR: I set core to normal then ran the following commands, each time after closing and restarting dosbox (the only modifier was under autoexec I had it go straight into the game folder): loadfix …

I have 0.74 installed, and have not changed any of the default settings. I try to play A Line in the Sand from SSI, and I get this error: http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/8408/dosbox002.png Doesn't matter if I choose EGA or VGA. Doesn't matter what preferences I change, I cannot get the game to …

Te IVA drivers I have not tried yet. I've been tinkering witht he iwndows 98 setup for s short while. For some reason, windows wanted to keep reinstalling the same driver on every single reboot. FInally got that nailed down. I did find one solution that is stretching the idea of keeping DOSBox... …

Alright, well, I guess I didn't explain why I'm trying to use MS-DOS (or some DOS) instead of DOSBox; unfortunately, I do not have the mopney right now to do several things; get a better desktop so I can set ONE setting and play any game I want. (Yes I realize I can resolve this a bit better with a …

heh. Too late ;) You see, theis is the same problem I had when I was a kid (I was 6 in 1988 and my first computer I HAD to build. On my own.) Anyway, when I was a kid, I used to wipe my drive and reinstall DOS aabout twice a month. I had too much time on my hands and I did things differentl each …

BAH! And here I was thinking it would all work... any chance of FreeDOS doing it? I'm trying to get as 'pure' as I can. I really do miss my old 486 (it burned up) I guess I'll just make do with what's there and troll eBay or something for older parts. I'll be putting 98 on it tonight after I backup …

OKay. First off, I hope this is in the right spot...couldn't decide which forum to place this in, so fi I'm wrong, slap me, say I'm stupid and move my post ;) I recently acquired a Fujitsu Lifebook C2210: Processor: Mobile Intel® Pentium® 4 2.0 GHz Hard Drive: 60GB HDD Memory: 521MB Optical Drives: …
