I've typed the long version too often to seriously answer the original question. People should browse and search the forum.

sounds familiar. Isn't that the byte people can use to see if the floppy got changed as well ? as the dpb needs to reread from disk in that case.

kq2 you are right about that. however it works as you swap around all disks with the ctrl-f4 combination (both A and B (and other floppies: otherfloppy -> B B->A A->Otherfloppy)

hmm. I don't know. I'm not sure if that is the actual byte used by that call. (as that isn't the bootsector the call inquiries about.) I think wd knows it, as the location of the dos tables was determined by him to get windows runinng.

f8f8 would indicate a mounted C and D drive ? I assume you talk about the DS:BX pointer. (as dosbox points to the table where these are stored.... maybe they need to be copied to a location and then point to it. Dunno.) They are stored for all drives in onetable.

well in the cvs: if you have 2 images selected it becomes drive A and drive B ctrl-f4 in that case wll probably swap A and B around 2 different ques with images.... Do you have any game that requires this setup ?

I guess that fix for a certain music player used in contraption zack made it work. (it's an RTC update which is the default used timer in the doom music player. To "confirm" this you could try to change to the /T0 timing with an older build to see if works.)

it's not your cpu that is being overclocked. It's the timer that is overclocked. This won't harm your Athlon.

how does pitstop II switch to composite mode ? I only see lot's of screen mode switches. but no writes to 3d8. (except for the int 10 0 calls that write stuff to it)

I still hope oneday to implement the chromafilter, but NTSC signals aren't very comparable with RGB signals, which gives me some nasty problems when adapting it to 256 colours with a lookup table. I'm ignorant about DOSBox internals - would it be possible to implement composite graphics emulation …
