Hi, I got this problem with two old games, Fragile Allegiance and Syndicate (haven't tested other old games yet). To make it simple, I start playing these two games, using DOSBox, and some minutes later (random timing, it seems, since I've played FragAlleg for 15 minutes and 1.5 minutes 😖 ) the game exits on its own and the following message appears "Error: video file format wrong." at the Command Prompt of DOSBox. The specs from my computer are the following:
. Motherboard -> Intel Express Board D865PERL
. Processor -> Intel Pentium 4 2.7E
. Soundcard -> SoundMAX 4 XL (part of the motherboard)
. 1 GB of 512 MB RAM DDR 128
. Graphic Card -> NVIDIA GeForce XFX 5200 128 MB
. OS -> Microsoft Windows XP Professional SP2
I've looked around the forum for any threads concerning this issue or something similar but didn't found any (in the first 5 pages, that is 😀 ). Checked the FAQ and Readme first, but saw nothing related to this. And it's been so long since I've delved into DOS (well, since 1998 or 1999, I think), I can barely remember all the commands. 😅 So I don't really know if this is repairable by commands or if it will be something more complicated. Any help is deeply appreciated! 😁
