It'd be nice to have a single DOSBox config that I didn't have to edit, where I could, say, point MT32 games at I/O 300, and General MIDI games at I/O 330. What's wrong with having 2 DOSBox configs? You don't have to edit anything, just start DOSBox with different command line parameters (= 2 …

The point is, this isn't img/cue; this is a .img with a .ccd and .sub. Is "img/cue" something you even see regularly? I've only ever seen .cue files with .bin files. Sorry, maybe I wasn't clear enough. CloneCD img/ccd/sub + cue => works with imgmount. Cue-file can be created for any CloneCD image …

What I like to do on Windows: For most games I use the default config in %LOCALAPPDATA%\DOSBox If some game needs different setting that can be changed at runtime in DOSBox, I create a batch script to start the game.

Did you reinstall 0.74-3 in the same path as before? Maybe something on your system is broken in that specific path.
