I'm curious, is there any reason people prefer the windows versions of MW2 over running the patched (1.1) DOS version in DOSbox? A long time ago I used to fight to make it run in Windows, but for the past 15+ years whenever I've felt like playing through some missions, I'll just boot up DOSbox and …

If you check through the 1.1 readme, it states that it doesn't support DOS. The repeating sounds and wrong sounds …

ouch

yeah, putting choice.com in \system32 worked, thanks for that

hello, I've been playing around with MechWarrior 2 DOS & win95 versions and came across a bit of a problem I've got win98/win2k dual boot, so I alternate between the two and I noticed today I can't run the 1.1 patch in 2K, which I did successfully install a couple of days ago in Windows 98.
