Installed from cd (bin/cue image), no problem. Runs setsound program just fine as well

Upon launching the game the program exits fairly quickly with no error message.

Tried 0.74 and svn build.

Using default conf file settings.

Mount settings:
mount c .\games\TotalCnF
imgmount d .\games\TotalCnF\cd\TCFBALL.cue -t cdrom
c:
cd .\games\tcfball\
cls
TCFBALL

It appears that disabling the LFB makes the game happy, at least in DOSBox it does. I tried to get it working with the LFB using different DPMI servers, disabling DPMI 1.0 extensions, increasing memsize, loadfix, but none of those things worked. I had limited success with WDOSX, but the game still crashes at some point.

The easiest method to go LFB-less is machine=vesa_nolfb; however, machine=svga_s3 with Ken Silverman's NOLFB TSR works, and the other SVGA machine types with appropriate VESA drivers also works.
