The mere thought hadn't even begun to speculate about the merest possibility of corssing my mind.

What oem's are using now is similar to the corporate editions of xp really. A corp edition is a version that uses something similar to what is now known as mak serials, and is preactivated during setup. These days there are more licensing types than in xp though. Now you have mak (multiple …

Ye and the reason you get those mails is because people like wd knowlingly and intentionally avoid fixing the forums to work properly.

yes I still say that. You may be ignorant, but I am not

The memberlist is not accessible without logging in. If you don't get a mail, you're screwed. Simple's that. I've got spam scanning before mail enters my private account, then it is forwarded to my company account where it has to pass thru anther spam scanning before it ends up in exchange - after …

it may be possible, but I couldn't find any way - I was just lucky that I eventually got the mail before giving up.

ye I managed to take a quick look at that before I left work. Now I'll have hollidays till the end of easter so I won't look more into it until then - but I think it'll do if it can redirect lpt1 to something in the real world

Ye I think you're right about ultimate. I only know that from the rc though - I know that the home ones can't as that's a problem we run into at work quite frequently. Anyway yes you can upgrade on the fly. The curious thing I've noticed about the versions is that our mak and kms keys seem to work …

I don't know the jive word - anyway ultimate and enterprise are essentially the same - one's for companies and the other for private individuals ... and both are overpriced and provide nothing of value that pro doesn't.

No I'm saying it's not the smartest thing to have an error message saying you should contact a particular person without providing means to identifying that person.

I never made any claim indicating that I am polite. I am honest however, and appearently that's more important to people than being polite. I appreaciate the responses, I really do. But if something bugs me I report it. I'm sorry if that offends you. You've done a fine job making dosbox, it merely …

From a quick look at some behavour I'm thinking the problem is the use of upcase() ? Wouldn't it be possible to just leave everything in whichever case it is and just pass it on? With no character converting there can't be any incorrect converting I'd think?

Can you name any such emulator? ps. I know the main purpose of dosbox is retro gaming, but it works for other stuff too. My aunt uses it to run her Auditor software saving her a huge bunch of money on new licenses.

Yes, well that's not really a solution to the problem, but merely indicates that the problem is known. Besides, to me the character isn't foreign.

Hello. I meant to use dosbox to run some simulation software in windows 7, but appearently it can't work! We recently upgraded about half of our computers (800-1000) and bought windows 7 licences for them. We're still stuck in xp because some problems just don't want to work in 64bit win 7 though. …

Windows 7 in simple speek: 32 or 64bit? Get 32Bit if you don't have a 64bit enabled cpu or need to run windows software that requires special drivers or 16bit subsystem components (siemens step7 etc). Use vista or windows 2008 drivers if none are available for win7 Get 64Bit in any other case - next …

When creating a user for the forum I was faced with not getting any activation email. After a while I got impatient, so I tried to request a new password and was told my account was inactive and to contact the forum administrator. I thought, well I can log in and request a new activation code - no I …
