in DOS
Tried it...no go. Get this error message: DPMI_MAp PHysical ToLInear () failed !! Press any key to continue. Ok, that's the message I get when attempting to run RedneckRampageRidesAgain without NOLFB.COM. Hrmmm. This may be a GF4 issue. Thanks for the feedback. Could you confirm one last thing for …

in DOS
...with credit where due,& prior permisssion... Hey Eric, do me a favor. Temporarily, could you set the sound in your Redneck to match the default VDMSound settings (IRQ 7, DMA 1, DMA 5, port A220) then change the video to 320x200. The right-click on the game's executable (that would be RR.EXE for …

UPDATE: Just found drivers for the Sound Blaster AWE 64 Value on http://www.soundblaster.com which means it exist. And yay, it the example where you search for cards by model number it used mine. I did the same # search and came up with "Sound Blaster AWE 64" (no Value), and the only entry for AWE …

For W2K you also need the spirit of Nicht, which wouldn't fit in the archive. Oooo...a mysterious comment. Actually the farthest I've gotten has been just like the last image I posted. Major redraw problems and it's not running in XP for me. One thing I can say is, if the card they're using has …

This thread is here for the sole purpose of listing games that are frequently difficult to run on modern machines, (especially NT-based PC's) and possible suggestions on how to get them working. It should cover both DOS and Windows titles, but DOS titles will be the primary concern due to their …

... I won't go back since XP works the best with my PC. Reason I said that was because there are still titles out there that don't want to run in XP or won't run at all, but they still run fine in Win98. Should I use Microsoft's built in drivers, or Creative's ? Just let the OS choose it for you. …

Actually, since she's on a P4 the CPU should survive (processor slows down until temp reaches a safe zone), but it would still lock up the machine. In any case, you need to confirm the source so you're not needlessly replacing parts. Run the PC without it's case cover/cover panels. When you hear the …

I wouldn't recommend it. He's been asked before: Well I don't know what 3DRelams stance is, Monolith doesn't have the authority to release the source as it belongs to GT Interactive, which belongs to Infrogrames who apparently doesn't even know that they have the source code and probably wouldn't …

Here's the sad tale: Yes, I already knew the story which I why I said you'd have to travel to another dimension (one where Bethesda actually implemented 3dfx into Battlespire). A note: Battlespire, as with most Bethesda games, uses Bethesda's 3D engine 'XnGine'. As you probably already know, X-Car …

Yeah, but this PC is not worth the trouble. I've filled those fields in the profile out with detailed info Understood. 400 MHz is a bit on the weak side for XP. I remember it feeling sluggish on an AMD950. ...have SB64 AWE laying around somewhere, Give it a try. Your system just cries out for a …

"We have exorcised the demons!" Don't jump the gun. Here's a pic from the 1st part of the 1st level, right after opening the doors in the crypt. You can see the gravestone and the post near it clearly. There's still a problem with erasing and re-drawing on mine. Using the latest OpenGlide DLL. …

The soundcard works perfectly except for with VDMSound and I'm using the recommended drivers... Well, if the built-in SB emulation isn't working, then it isn't working "perfectly" . Seems like I have to give up till I can afford a new PC. *gack* Well, you shouldn't have to get a whole new PC. Just …

This kind of situation is precisely why I set my PC up to dual-boot and encourage others to do it as well. Of course, setting it up after you've installed the NT-based OS is always a headache. Right now, it looks like you have to either use a clone, or wait for DosBox to run it properly with audio ( …

Glidos leaves the audio code alone any only affects the graphics right? Right. Paul uses VDMSound when running under NT/2000/XP, so you'll get the same results as when you run it normally. About the only thing that might be different is that Paul was able to access the "Tomb Raider" CD audio tracks …

GF3. Have you tried 640X480? Like I said before, yes, I am using 640x480. The only other mode that Voodoo1 would support is 800x600, and GliDOS doesn't match that (it uses 800x640...and yes, I tried that too). Despite your assertion earlier, I think you having the earlier version is what's making …
