Re: No Sound in Another World??

in DOS
I have the same problem with that version. I was uncertain if it was just me or not. I can't seem to find an old DOS version to test. If you'd like to PM me a link to it, I'll try it out and get back to you.

Re: Chewy: ESC from F5 won't run with sound under XP

in DOS
The guidelines are so that we can help you . Anyway, I'm downloading the game from The Underdogs. It looks like their bandwidth cap is at ~26.2KB/s (or there are just that many people downloading), so it'll take me about 50 minutes to download the game. Then the testing will begin (at least, on my …

Re: Svga?

Not to dig up the dead, but while I was perusing the same old site I made, I found this: Q: I get an error message that I need a VESA-compatible video card or VESA-compatible drivers. What is VESA, and where can I get it? VESA is the Video Electronics Standards Association's video mode standard, …

Re: Cannot enable EMS under Win2K...

in Deep Thought
Here's an interesting thing I found while I was randomly perusing old sites I'd made in the past. It's an EMM386 line. It might help. DEVICEHIGH=C:\WINDOWS\EMM386.EXE RAM I=B000-B7FF I=CC00-DFFF I=E000-EFFF I=F000-F2FF FRAME=E000 As you can see, there are many more memory locations for EMM386. Try …

Re: other DOS Glide games

At least you can change the requirements... there are other installers that won't. ANNOYING. Good to hear it works, though. I did the same thing regarding the INI files, so don't feel too bad about it all. 😜

Re: Problem with Tip of the day

It can only be disabled by unchecking the box when you see the TotD. It runs as a DLL (ugh), so either your TipOfDay DLL is broken or your RUNDLL32.EXE is broken. The easier of the two problems is to fix the TipOfDay.dll, which is to run a "Repair" operation on VDMSound. Someone else would have to …

Re: Escape to Delirium and EMM386

in DOS
This sounds like a problem that has been experienced by at least one other person here. Do you have a RAID or extra HDD controller? Things like that could cause the problem by not allowing EMM386 to load in memory by taking up too much space. Make sure that in your CONFIG.NT goes as follows: DOS= …

Re: Help with the 7th guest on XP

in Windows
Uh, yeah. Seventh Guest and Eleventh Hour will *NOT* run under NT/2K/XP. Believe me. I've tried. Doesn't work. Won't work. Can't work. Uses too many stupid direct hardware interface calls. Hell, I had a hard enough time getting The Eleventh Hour working under 9x, and even then the audio on the video …
