That's right, I've try load A4 Networks (it's four part of a-train game) in Dosbox and I got that message MEMORY 01 - NOT ENOUGH EMS MEMORY
Can somebody help me with this problem ?
I take it that you tried to increase the amount of memory by editing the configuration file of dosbox ?

How to ask questions the smart way!
Bartosz - please execute the following commands in DOSBox, and report the results here.
Z:\>ver
Z:\>memsize
Z:\>ems
Z:\>xms
Z:\>mem

No, I do nothing with incease of memory.
Ok, so:
ver:
DosBox version 0.72. Reported DOS version 5.0.
memsize:
16
ems:
true
xms:
true
mem:
634 kb free conventional memory
63 kb uper memory in 1 blocks (largest UMB 63 kb)
15280 kb free extended memory
15280 kb free expanded memory
Okay - now try to do as Qbix suggested. Edit the file dosbox.conf and change memsize=16 to memsize=64.
Start DOSBox and verify (with the memsize and mem commands) that your changes are active. Then start your program.

I would try memsize=32 first.
Intel i7 5960X
Gigabye GA-X99-Gaming 5
8 GB DDR4 (2100)
8 GB GeForce GTX 1070 G1 Gaming (Gigabyte)
I've changed to 64, thetn to 32 and there is still the same problem witm ems memory 🙁
Any other ideas?
Try the command 'loadfix' before you run the program.
If that doesn't help, try the command 'ems false' before you run the program.

Still the same problem 🙁
Post your system specs, dosbox version etc.
Winsows XP SP2
AMD Athlon XP 2600+
1.91Ghz, 768 MB Ram
GForce 5200 FX 64 MB
Can I ask you something? Here are the site I've dosnloaded A4 Can you download and check this game on yours computers please? 😉 It's only 4MB.
Cheers
/EDT Link removed. Abandonware is wrong!
Works just fine.
Don't you know how can I increase EMS memory on my computer?
Maybe buy an ems expansion card.
No, I won't do that. Waste of money 😉
Probably I'll gave up. I love this and I would like to play it a lot but this problem hasn't got a solution 🙁
It has a solution, that is dosbox. Dunno what's messed up on your installation,
works out of the box.
Bartosz - uninstall DOSBox, reboot, install DOSBox, try again.

I'm out of my mind - still the same problem even when I'm trying open A4 without Dosbox. I was trying open A4 in my dad's comp but there is still the same problem with EMS.
Is this the first and only program you have tried with DOSBox?

No, earlier I played A-train and Simcity with it and there wasn't any problems. But I see thay A4 can be loaded without Dosbox because the same problem is when I start it normally in Windows
