8. Description of problem:
After I install the game the message I get before I run the game is:
It seems there is not enough standard memory available to run the game.
Even if you have plenty of high memory, you need to have at least about 597Kb of free low memory.
Low memory available: 583K
Requested memory: 597K
When I run the game anyway thinking that that's "about" as much as I need the message I get is:
Program too big to fit in memory.
Bad command or file name
Press any key to continue . . .
9. Reproducibility of problem:
Always after I load the game with VDMS. The dos window auto closes when I don't use VDMS.
10. Sound mode used:
SB and compatibles, Port 220, IRQ 7, DMA 1 (I actually autodetect and there's no way to figure it out
11. Video mode:
Still don't understand this but I'll take a guess that it's VGA.
