First off, my system specs:
Windows 98 SE
Asus P3V4X mb
Pentium 3 1000mhz CPU
3dfx Voodoo 3 3000
SB Awe 64 Gold
512mb RAM
I have tried using an SSD with an IDE to SATA adapter, a mechanical SATA HDD with an IDE to SATA adapter and an IDE hard drive. I get the exact same problem with all three storage variations.
The problem:
When I run Duke 3d in a WIndows 98 window, it runs flawlessly.
However, when I run Duke 3d in pure DOS mode, the game stutters every few seconds. It will run smoothly for a second, then it will stutter for a second, and it keeps repeating. The sound stutters at the same time the video stutters.
I'm assuming it's configuration issue somewhere and not a hardware issue as it runs fine in Windows 98.
When I boot into pure DOS mode, I do not get any error messages. It says that the Sound Blaster has configured correctly.
Any idea what is going on here?
If you need me to post more info, please let me know exactly what you want to see.
Thanks.
