I see you are not familiar with ms-dos. At the c:\> prompt, just type the name of the executable used for running the game, a space, and then the parameter. C:\>star /g:bios If you are using a front-end, you may need to specify the parameter elsewhere. You could even create a batch file that calls …

I think you need to use a command-line parameter: /g:bios e.g. starcon.exe /g:bios 😎

It seems your forgot to mount ISO image again. It may be needed for reading data from CD.

Thanks for your replies. I will take Snover's approach (which I haven't heard of before). To HunterZ : Yes it's the blue bars what annoys me. I have latest nForce2 drivers installed. I have latest Catalyst 5.6 installed (ATi). I have latest Windows Update security patches. I am pretty sure I do not …

Hello. I have never seen anything like this. After swapping my old mobo (VIA) for a new nForce2 one i am getting this weird garbled screen when accessing Windows Update. Before you ask, EVERYTHING ELSE is working like a charm (even surfing the net with IE). It is just Windows Update. Any help would …

Use a frameskip value of 1 or 2. Barely noticeable and much less cpu demanding. 😎

You should SEARCH the forum. Game Wizard Pro has been discussed before, if I am not mistaken.

Posting real e-mail addresses seems like a VERY BAD IDEA to me. Just check this post and someone will eventually reply you. C:\>MD VNM This will create a directory named VNM. Of course you need to have mounted C: drive first.

DO NOT DO #6. BAD HUNTERZ. Registry cleaners do BAD SHIT to systems. The ONLY one that works reliably is Norton WinDoctor. Ditto on that! I have made myself a runnable stand-alone version of norton WinDoctor that even fits on a floppy (1.2MB). It's very handy for repairing damaged registries …

Good to hear you got it solved but I would use frameskip=1 - You won't hardly notice any difference and will save a few cpu cycles. 😎
