Re: King's Quest 7 running windowed only

in Windows
It's nice to know that there is a DOS verion of the game. My origiinal CD contains only windows version. I remember that it was not possible to run my game without that blue stripe at the top.

Re: Ensoniq sound card in DOS

Re: Bug with floppy swap not refreshing.

I have had a simmilar problem with mounting hdd folder as a floppy. I couldn't delete install.exe from the virtuall floppy after the installation process has begun and after it asked for a new floppy. I have solved it by copying all the floppies to the same folder before the installation.
