According to this post (http://forums.3drealms.com/vb/showthread.php?t=32834) that file is part of the original game. Does the file exist somewhere in your C:\SW folder?

Is that 1440x900 for the physical display, or your graphics card?

Read my 60 Seconds Guide to DOSBox (and don't just read it - follow it too). If that doesn't help, come back with details on how you mounted your C and D drives, how you did the install, how you configured sound, music etc. Reading the aptly named README file will be a good idea too.

imachavel - The VERY first thing you have to do, is to make up your mind! Do you want to use/play this game using the DOSBox emulator, or do you want to run it directly in Windows?

Did you mount a C drive in DOSBox? Tried running LOADFIX before starting the game? Tried fiddling with the xms, ems, umb settings? Changed memsize? Change core? Finally, read my 60 Seconds Guide to DOSBox (and don't just read it - follow it too). If that doesn't help, come back with details on how …

offical release? This is the latest version right out of the main site. 0.72. Maybe... But where did the config file come from? Looking at my copy of the dosbox.conf file that came with 0.72 I see these differences: You have: memsize=128 I have: memsize=16 Btw, DOSBox will never make more than 63 …
