Hi there, just downloaded EmuCR Dosbox r3784, but get this error

This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

I have Visual C++ installed and have tried deleting the .conf file but no joy, any ideas?

I'm pretty sure yhkwong is not basing his builds on EmuCR's anything.
Both are basing their built on Dosbox' SVN 😀

What might have been the problem is a mismatch of SDL.dll or other dlls that come with eiither original Dosbox, EmuCR and Yhkwong.

I really appreciate all your help, but I dont really want to have to learn advanced rocket science simply to play a game! i just want to download DOSBox and play, all this subversion client/build from source stuff is way over my head, i'll stick with the build on EmuCR, they work for me anyway.

I thought so too but you asked where to download SVN 😉
But now you are saying emucr builts are working for you? I thought the whole point of this thread was that it didn't... 😉

🤣, yes sorry didn't explain myself very well, the DOSBox EmuCR SVN does not work, but the DOSBox Daum one does, so i'll stick that.

Also when I asked about downloading SVN, i didn't realised that you had to compile it yourself, i thought there would be a pre-compiled .exe for download, but no matter. Many thanks once again for all your help.

There are no svn builds listed there

It contains the official releases so use them.

I have been using the official DOSBox for some time and am very happy with it, but I recently got myself a real rev 0 Roland MT-32 and need the rev00 fix to fix the buffer overflow errors in some games. That is the only reason I need to use an SVN build.

The VC++ runtimes aren't cumulative. You might need to install 2008 or 2005.
