ty for the speedy reply:)

yes

and

[autoexec]
# Lines in this section will be run at startup.
mount C C:\game
mount D D:\ -t cdrom

in the config file

i dont feel your giving me enough credit;)

oh, and btw, i managed to get discworld 2 and toonstuck running pretty quickly

Don't know what that argentum collection is, but normally you should
be taken to some sound configuration during the installation.
Anyways try to find the setsound.exe on the installation (c:\ inside
dosbox) and use that one, not the one on the cdrom.

usually there is, but it doesn't seem to apply for this

not there

however there's a config file, i tried using that within dosbox, i get setsound unknown command error, so i put the file(setsound.exe) in the root, but then it says there are no drivers, even when the whole disc is within the installation folder

Better undo that step 😉
Where did that config file come from? Maybe have a look at its contents,
could be there are some entries for configuration.

Also try starting the game executable with something like
"game s" or "game ?".

?? you've lost me

How do you start the game?

c:

cd discwld.cd

disc

as command prompts

What i meant was starting the game with "disc s" or "disc ?" or something,
by times games use parameters to set the sound.
But it's a bit odd that there is no setsound in the installation, only on the cd.

im still dont see how its relivent, but yes it starts if i use them commands

Are there any .dig files in the discwld.cd directory? (dir *.dig)
Is there a dig.ini? Are there any batchfiles? (dir *.bat)

CONFIG.BAT
DISC.BAT
DWB.EXE
DWCONF
GDRIVERS.BAT
RM.DRV

yeh...

Well try that config.bat, if it doesn't work post its contents here.

echo off
setsound

cant find setsound 😜

Try this: copy setsound.exe and *.dig from the cdrom into the c:\disc.cd
directory, possibly remove the read-only attribute and start setsound then.

you rock:D its strange though, as i thought i has done that:-/

however, when i run it from the cd, i get midi and digital audio setting, but ive done what you told me and only digital audio settings were selectable does that matter?

lastly, i had to copy "AILDRVR.LST" from the cd to hdd, cause it asked me to:-/

is it ment to have background tune, thing... maybe that midi related:-/

ah, nvm figured it out:D

hmm... midi set, but no noticeable differance
