[Moved] Are you using DOSBox? Anyway it doesn't seem to me that your problem isn't related to emulation.

Yeah, you may need this hotfix too: Missing dialog hotfix At least, they are fast releasing fixes. 😁

Windows 9.x would crash even without doing nothing.

FAT32 = smaller cluster size, maybe better LFN handling.

I don't know if the game will run using VDMSound, but it has some optional cpu adjustments.

This may end up in companies having dwindled PC sales. It's not surprising that consoles have taken over. It seems PC marketing guys are blind with money. They don't care about quality anymore, just fast big sales. Pity.
Too many shader model 3 games already. Too little OpenGL ones.

Good day. I need to rant a little, so forgive me in advance. I am seeing that with my aging Radeon X800GTO more and more games don't run at all. Damn it! It cost me about 300 € not that long ago. About 90% of released games now require a shader model 3 capable video card. That the same old story. We …

[Moved] You are on the right track. This is what I do. Notice that I am not using any frontends. My main dosbox.conf (located in the DOSBox folder) contains several lines at its end, the part that autoexecutes commands, that is cleverly named [autoexec] keyb sp 437 mount c d:\dosgames c: For …

I think patching it for using some 800x600 VESA 1.2 mode would be a good bet.

Vasyl: Unfortunately, it only covers mode 5Eh (640x400x256) just because that was the on-board VGA on Amstrad PC2086. It only had 256KB of video RAM. The book is dated circa that time (1988).

I've got an old book about programming CGA/EGA/VGA cards using Turbo Pascal (by François Gervais). It also covers programming the mode 5Eh of Paradise PVGA1A. It has several samples of code. Unfortunately, it's in Spanish. Anyway if someone is interested, I could scan a few pages.

Int 21/ah=44 means function 44 for ms-dos interrupt 21h. This is for programmers. MS-DOS had several features that could be "called" using interrupts. The requested feature was usually invoked using the proper value in the ah portion of the ax register (a microprocessor register AX could be "broken …

256 for memsize is pointless because maximum allowable memsize is 64. Correct me if I am wrong.
