Try the latest version. I think ykhwong created one just 2 days ago.

Errr, DOSBox 0.62 is really old. The current official version is 0.63 and there are many more recent CVS builds available . Try them first. (To find a CVS build, check out the sticky thread on the "DOSBox Development" forum).

I just noticed: The border is always unblended black in fullscreen when using "surface" output mode. Most likely because of a switch to 8bit paletted mode rather than my regular 32bit desktop.

CVS is the version control system. A CVS build is the term applied to an executable "built" from the latest source code as it currently exists in the CVS repository. This includes all the latest patches and improvements (and also the freshest bugs :pppt: ) There's several around. You could try …

Three things to do: - Even though the sound works well in the intro, check to make sure you've selected the correct IRQ in the game's setup program (DOSBox uses IRQ7 by default). - Also, ensure that the game's files are not set to read-only. - Use the "normal" core in dosbox.conf (the default) There …

no dosbox internally runs on 8 bit. I'm sure you know much more about this than I do, but it does seem to pass 32bit to SDL in most cases, at least with most scalers and with any output mode other than surface. Otherwise the things such as blending (in the overscan border patch, for instance) …

HunterZ, that's not actually the programmers' fault. The people at Creative and Adlib told them to do this. This was in part because, operating on the 8MHz ISA, and with the specification of the chips themselves, polling a port did in fact take a perfectly predictable amount of time. It was only …

Can one of the DOSBox devs or hackers confirm this? I thought DOSBox only renders in 16- or 32-bit and prefers the latter. DOSBox renders internally at 32bit. It prefers 16bit for output, simply because of the reduced memory bandwidth. NewRisingSun is probably confused by DOSBox supporting only …

Try adding "-ioctl" to the mount command.

The difference between a 8088 and 8086 was like that between a 386SX and 386DX. They both supported the exact same instruction set, but the 8088 had an 8bit databus, whereas the 8086 had a 16bit databus (for the 386s that was 16- and 32bit respectively). Both the IBM PC, XT and PCjr had a 4.77MHz …
Re: cannot run with virtual memory active

Your post is a little unclear. Are you sure you've actually downloaded, installed and are using the program called "DOSBox" and that you're not referring to Windows XP's built-in emulation? XP's virtual memory is not detectable to a program running in DOSBox.

Perhaps "A>" should be used instead. The default DOS prompt doesn't include the path anyway. It may have been used by MS, but the "A>" prompt originates in CP/M.

Weird. It looks fine, but the value is strange. At overscanstrength=3, the white of the dollarsign should have its blue/green levels reduced by a factor of 4. Since the white isn't pure (0xFF in each channel), but slightly darker (0xFC), I'd expect 0x3F for blue/green. Instead, they're 0x38 ( …
Re: Overscan border patch

That cannot possibly be right. Looking at Vasyl's patch, he uses interp_w2 to blend the two pixels. There, a blend weight of 30 means that the border should have an opacity of 30 parts in 31 (just under 97%). It would look nearly solid red, which it doesn't in your screenshot. According to Vasyl's …
Re: Overscan border patch

Looks like its overflowing istead of saturating when adding the colours. Vasyl's earlier screenshots didn't show this bug. Could be related to desktop bitdepth (perhaps it's a bug only in 16bit mode, not in 32bit mode).
