An ISO does not contain CD audio. You'll need to make a .bin and .cue file of your CD for CD audio to work.

error C3861 Probably the pixel perfect patch. Should work starting with VS2013 or mingw32 w/gcc or mingw-w64 w/gcc. Really not much point in using VS2010. VS2017 still supports XP SP3 if that's your concern. If it's $$ the community ver is free you'll just need to download the Windows SDK seperately …

DOSBox doesn't emulate the command prompt and your post seems odd. Keeping an eye in case this is another spambot post.

If you think it's a filesystem issue then you can install your game in an image and boot in it DOSBox. Also it's unclear if you tested with DOSBox or DOSBox-x. We only accept bugs reports for DOSBox.

Re: DOSBox source code->

Haven't tested with the free versions of VS yet but more than likely they don't come with the Windows SDK so you'll need to download that and point VS to the SDK source files. You do have to jump through a bit more hoops when compiling DOSBox with VS vs Mingw but mainly it's due to using an IDE vs …

AnyDVD will let you play the bluray on non-HDCP graphics cards and monitors. Can't remember the earliest ver that supported blu-ray. AnyDVD does work on XP. Once you use AnyDVD then you can just use VLC to play the movie straight from Blu-ray or you can probably use any blu-ray software....although …

Yeah I'm hoping like the SLIC modifications the community gets together and does the same for these vulnerabilities. It looks like for UEFI it may be pretty simple not sure about non-uefi tho.

Supposedly any OS below Windows 10 is affected more by the Windows patch for performance. I'm hoping someone keeps track on the companies that patch their old equipment. That way we know what companies to buy from in the future.....

Downloaded latest bios for my Precision 5510 and my system is now patched. My MSI gt72 2qe still has no BIOS update and I doubt my parents Dell Latitude D630 and D520 (both running Windows 10) ever will. Hopefully MS can get a microcode update pushed. You'd hope that something like this would get …
