I've recently got some parts together for a win98/dos gaming machine.
I've been having some trouble with several games I have installed.
Dungeon Master 2 tells me to run the setup program, even if I already have.
Corridor 7 crashes at a memory page related loading message.
Dungeon Keeper runs, but when I quit, it mentions a problem accessing controls.dat.
Chasm mentions a corrupt header on csm.bin.
Probably more, haven't tested them all on this machine.
I've tested all these games and they run just fine in dosbox.
I've tried a pure win98 setup using restart in dos mode and I'm now using a FreeDOS 1.1/Win98 setup.
Specs:
Abit BE6 II motherboard.
Pentium III 800mhz
MSI Nvidia GeForce 4 TI4200 64M
SoundBlaster 16 Value
ADMtek NC100 Ethernet
Could this be a bad hard drive? Is the motherboard subtley bad?
Maybe a bios setting?
