I have gotten Alien Virus to start up with difficulty. I had to change the frame skip and processor speed, but the game innevitably crashes as soon as the robot attempts to open the door for me. It says something about a "timing error." I know some people have been able to play the game, so I desperately hope that someone will tell me how I can play this promising looking game.

Come on now ... I know some people have played this game, because it is listed as "playble" at DOSBOX. I just need to figure out what is causing my game crash when the robot tries to open the door for me.

Okay, I got past the bug by using a slowdown program instead of DOSBOX. In fact, it actually works better that way. Maybe for the next version of DOSBOX, someone can take a look to see what makes a SLOWDOWN work better than DOSBOX in some games.

Thanks.
