Hi.
A few weeks ago I tested WarCraf II (original version from 1994) in multiplayer with DOSBox 0.73. At that time I ran Windows XP on both computers used. And, well, it worked...
Now I installed Windows 7 on one computer and it doesn't work anymore.
I can connect via
serial1=nullmodem rxdelay:10000
and I see when the client has connected in Status Window "Serial1: A client <correct ip> hast connected"
But if I start the game and try to start multiplayer, I just get the following error in both DOSbox Status Windows:
"Serial1: Errors occured: Framing 0, Parity 0, Overrun 1 <IFO:0>, Break 0"
I tried to shutdown my ZoneAlarm firewall, but with no effect. I also tried Port 5000. Didn't work either.
So. Whats wrong?
I repeat: The same configuration worked with Windows XP.
