I have issues with X-Wing.
My hardware: 440BX Iwill MB, 2x128 MB RAM, PIII 450, Voodoo 5500, Diamond MX300 (Vortex2) with DB60XG daughterboard.
I try to get it working under Windows 98 SE in pure DOS. These are the configuration files:
CONFIG.SYS:
DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\HIMEM.SYS
DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\EMM386.EXE 4096 RAM
DEVICE=C:\CDPRO\VIDE-CDD.SYS /D:MSCD001
DOS=HIGH,UMB
FILES=40
BUFFERS=40
LASTDRIVE=Z
AUTOEXEC.BAT
SET PATH=C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND
SET BLASTER=A240 I10 D3 T4
LH AU30DOS.COM
MSCDEX /D:MSCD001 /V
SET TMP=C:\WINDOWS\TEMP
SET TEMP=C:\WINDOWS\TEMP
SET PROMPT=$p$g
SET winbootdir=C:\WINDOWS
The problem is, i get the message:
Can't find X-Wing CD
Odd, because few seconds ago I installed the game from this drive. I also tried a different driver (oakcdrom.sys) but without success.
I also can't get the game working with the daugtherboard in Windows. It works well with midi files, it works also well in pure DOS, but if I select in the MX300 configuration that I want the Daughterboard sound for games in Windows DOS box, the game will freeze if it tries to play music, freezing my Windows. It happens when I select to play the test sound or launch the game. (if I select in MX300 configuration the onboard wavetable - everything works well). Unfortunately I don't have any other daughterboard to test this issue.
I would be thankfull for a solution or hint for both issues.
