Has anybody gotten this chestnut to work with VDMSound? I can't get to first base with this one, as the window opens for a few seconds and then just disappears. Doesn't leave the console window to provide a clue as to what went wrong. I've tried all the optional settings (enabling basic VESA support, low level CD-ROM support, enabling and un-enabling EMS and XMS, etc. etc., but nothing makes this game even run. I can actually get it to start up with DOSBox 0.61, but it is so slow as to be painful. Lots of times when DOSBox is slow VDMSound will run the game just fine, but not this one.
Oh yes, I'm running a P4 2 gig machine with 256 megs of RAM and a VisionTek video card aslo with 256 megs of memory (it uses an ATI 9200 chip).
