Do not use compatibility mode... Or be much more descriptive of the problem and the program

via MacPorts you can "install" bochs (which means it will be compiled). http://www.macports.org/ But that may be overkill... Edit... hmm, and if you are on OS X 10.6 it won't build for you... see http://trac.macports.org/ticket/23938

Yes, sorry, forgot about the booters. So I apologize about that part. On the other hand, afaik u5 was not a booter game. So if that one was supposed to boot, then it got altered somehow. Maybe the op needs to post the image for the devs...

Usually? Always depends on where such an image is... Could also be /volumes/dosusbstick/images/ultima/u5/floppy.img 😉 That is just path nitpicking and has nothing to do with the problem.

You can create a hdd image from within the megabuild.

Suuuuuuurrrrrre.... Just because it is fat formated doesn't mean there is an OS on it... You need some kind of operating system on the medium you boot from. So if you boot from a floppy disk, there needs to be an OS on it. And on a DOS emulator, it should have DOS on it... Why do you think it needs …

If there is no Dos on it how should it ever work? What game is it?

When I do this on OS X (10.6) and dosbox 0.74 it works, meaning it boots the image. So I guess it does the same for you but the image's autoexec.bat probably does something which reboots the "computer". Doubleclick the image in Finder and OS X *should* mount the image as drive. Then take a look at …

The real question is, why are you running dosbox in a vm instead of running it natively?

you are supposed to install the game from within dosbox.

also out of interest, what is your operating system? Also in the Readme the section about CDRpm Troubleshooting might be of use to figure out where it goes wrong (btw. the Readme there alos mentions the bin/cue image trick 😀) CD-ROM: My CD-ROM doesn't work.

strange. If it wouldn't be working with ScummVM I'd say your Midisport is broken... How are you running it? Just want to make sure you aren't doing something more complicated... I've just hooked the MT32 up via another USB-Midi device and the line out of the MT32 to the Mac's line in and when I run …
Re: Achtung: Spitfire "not able to locate the CD-ROM".

hmm, then I can only recommend trying a bin/cue image instead of the real CD (which is most of the times better anyway, since it keeps the noise down). I don't have the game, so I can't help you specifically. Just troubleshooting what might be culprits. Don't know where the settings are stored, an …

try fiddling with the preference file (~/library/preferences/Dosbox 0.74 Preferences). Look at the [midi] section: [midi] # mpu401: Type of MPU-401 to emulate. # Possible values: intelligent, uart, none. # mididevice: Device that will receive the MIDI data from MPU-401. # Possible values: default, …
