This isn't the GOG forums. You bought it there so go there for support. With that said if you've tried it with the official version of DOSBox with a default dosbox config and have patched the game and gone here http://www.sierrahelp.com/ and reviewed everything and posted on those forums about the …

DOSBox SVN Daum isn't supported here. With that said it's possible DOSBox SVN Daum is using a newer version of SDL that is incompatible with Windows 10 Fall Update. Try copying the SDL.DLL from DOSBox 0.74 which uses SDL 1.2.12 into the DOSBox SVN Daum directory. SDL mouse code was changed in SDL …

Can't really help except to say that if you have identified issues with msys2/mingw64/gcc then it's best to report them to the respective team. Had an issue a couple of months ago that took me and gandhig forever to figure out with MINGW where compiled executables were not working on 3.51,95 and 98. …

DOSBox doesn't do anything crazy. Install DOSBox to it's standard location and see if you have the same issue. Check your mount settings. Make sure you changed to the mounted drive.

State of Decay: YOSE Took about 15 hours and the game bored me the entire time. Didn't bother building out the last base, lots of houses still unscavenged. Too much pointless driving around. Ending sucked. Didn't bothered playing the DLC.

Depends on the application you run in DOSBox. If you set to max then it will not set cycles to higher than your computer can support so you're good. If your application is still running too slow then you need to upgrade your processor. There's no point in showing the value to a regular user since it …

You use fdisk to manage partitions You use format to format them. You can use the /Q switch to skip performing a full format. If you're afraid of messing up 9x you can either copy the windows folder to another folder and/or make a backup image.
