I disagree, but it just a matter on developers. We cannot be asking for everything, I know. Some old ms-dos apps don't work anymore under NTVDM but they do work under DOSBox. 😎 Besides, DOSBox allows a ms-dos application to break the stupid 16MB memory limit NTVDM has.

Yeah, enable basic VESA support in VDMSound is just a MISNOMER. It just means running FULLSCREEN. Nothing to do with VESA bios extensions. PS - I still don't know if the game crashed when you were running it without sound. If it didn't, then you should try a different music/sound effects …

Can you try it without sound?

Edit dosbox.conf inside DOSBox folder and change the line output=xxxx to a different value surface, overlay, ddraw, opengl, etc...

No. You must type it inside DOSBox. Then, exit DOSBox and edit it using a text editor (like Notepad). The file is located inside your DOSBox folder.

Maybe it's a ms-dos game using a STUPID windows installer. It wouldn't be the first time, specially under certain CD-ROM editions. Install game using Windows. After that, use DOSBox.

System Shock is playable using DOSBox (at least using standard VGA mode). This has been discussed on several different threads. Unlocked topic again. My wrong . It seems I misunderstood the previous thread. Simoyd wants to know if there a way for running SS smoothly without using DOSBox. I guess you …

Maybe he is referring to some mode-x tweaked VGA modes such as 400x320 360x240 and so on.

Instead of using Programs > Run, Launch cmd.exe to avoid window closing (to see if there is any error message).

type inside DOSBox config -wc dosbox.conf to generate a new DOSBox configuration file. Then, I assume is windowsize=WidhtXHeight E.g. windowsize=800x600

It seems you forgot to mount something or you mounted it incorrectly. Check the README/FAQs/GUIDES section of the forum if you haven't already done so.

Yes, with a lot of patience I had been able to recover some nasty floppy errors using VGACOPY (with retries=99).

Have you tried running it OUTSIDE DOSBox to see what happens?

For me, the Audigy has fixed the compatibility I had with some games. I am not saying that all AC'97 codecs are bad, it's just a matter of luck and picky hardware configurations.

I think you need to mount all images sequentally and then use CTRL-F4 to swap among them. I don't know if this feature is implemented yet, though.

I have gotten myself a regular SB Audigy SE for 29€ which suits my needs well. So far, so good. It sounds 200% louder and without pops nor static. Now, I am going to test some games which gave me compatibility problems with ALC650.
Re: Need advice on getting a new soundcard
Posted on 2006-02-17, 18:16
Maybe I should stay with the ALC650, then.
