Hello everyone,

I've got a Wing Commander III installation and everything is working fine. However when I access the key mapper DOSBox crashes.

The error message is

Exit to error: Could not initialize video mode for mapper: DirectDraw2::CreateSurface(PRIMARY): Not in exclusive access mode

This can be resolved by using ddraw output.

The computer runs Windows 10 64 bit and Nvidia card with latest drivers. I don't recall having this issue before, so curious if there is a way and it might have something to do with Windows 10.
