Re: Carmageddon trouble

Originally posted by Glidos Don't understand: what was wrong with the way this thread was started? He posted the exact same question in the "DOS" forum as he did in the GliDOS forum. I think Snover closed the GliDOS thread by accident (instead of the DOS thread). In any case, I went ahead and …

Originally posted by gatticus I ran a program that VESASPPED that ID the video adapter as VESA SuperVGA BIOs 2.0 Video Ram -64K ATI RAge. I'm sorry, Gatticus. I've hit a brick wall here. The "-64k" could indicate an actual problem with the card, but it's just as likely (in not more likely) that …

Originally posted by Snover I'm as pissed off as anyone at America (and yes, I am an American, *sigh*) but you can't blame everyone here... ..and I'm "pissed" at people apologizing for the situation. Now, are we going to let this off-topic grow here? move it to Millways? or let it die?

Re: Audio probs

Originally posted by Jer ...seems to be pausing to load audio and that's the reason for the video hiccups. I can't configure the game to run without digital audio though as it keeps complaining that it can't find a soundcard. Not good, and the inability to choose "no sound" makes it difficult to …

Originally posted by gatticus I installed Extreme Assault and ran the test and no video worked. Any ideas? No good ones. By chance, did you install DirectX 9 recently? This almost sounds like your card is defective. Anyone know of a good DOS-level video tester (that can be run off of a floppy)?

Originally posted by Unregistered ...I run Monkey Island (the first one) appears this message: "No CD-Rom drive or MSCDEX not installed" I have Windows XP. Odds are that you're using the GUI Launchpad and just need to enable "Low-level CD-ROM support", but your best bet is to use the ScummVM engine …

Originally posted by Shadow I found out that i have an integrated sound system thing. Which means i have no sound card. Right, you have an audio chipset. I now do not know what settings to put and since trying each setting risks my pcs health, (crashing, hanging) If you're running XP, you can …

Originally posted by gatticus I still get the yellow text and hang. Using NOLFB or not it is the same. Not at all good. Starting to sound like you might need full PC-emulation to fix your problem. When I run the install again it shows all to be okay. I ran Univbe5.1 and it created a Generic VGA …

Originally posted by Unregistered Maybe it is so, but I found out that the game runs well if I turn off the ingame speech sound. Hrrmm. That sounds much like the problem with "Realms of Arkania: Star Trail", where the audio portion simply wouldn't work properly in NT (before Mok's fix). What …

Originally posted by gatticus I tired running it (ages of Rifles) with the VMS... No, no, no. No sound, no VDMSound. Do not run it with VDMSound.

Originally posted by Adrian I did find a French version... The game appeared to worked fine as before, so I loaded my saved game from the English version, an enemy building was captured.. and it didn't crash!

Originally posted by Unregistered I use xp. In MM4 the game freezes when I try to click on warrior or adventures in the beginning when you create characters. If I close down the game and restart it, I can load the game that just froze. I have the same problem when using dosbox. If you are getting …

Originally posted by Jer The audio now plays with lots of pauses to load from the HD and the video (generic SVGA) jerks along accordingly. I have tried various settings in the VDM setup pages but can't seem to find a combination that will fix these problems. Well, video is not handled by VDMSound ( …

Originally posted by kattefisk I have just installed a couple of old games: Doom, Doom 2, Shadow Warrior and Duke Nukem 3D. Err...that's four, not two. There seems to be a problem with running most of these games with sound. It's a "PopF" problem. Other NT OS's require that you process the game …
