You need a special patch. Search the forums or use Google. Ask again if you don't find it. 😎

Thank you for your greetings 😀 I am glad that you like my patch. BTW - I just updated my readme file. It contains some hints now what to do if a modern motherboard doesn't like EMS. Maybe one is able to reactivate EMS via some sophisticated BIOS settings.

Game patchers - at least in terms of functionality and compatibility, not cheating - are always welcome here. In fact, the more you can attract to VOGONS (if there is a "scene" for game hackers), the happier I am. Pleased to see you over here, Cabirus! 😁
