I am getting this error in DOS and not really sure what to do. The screen becomes garbled when I try to play it. You can't even tell what the error is, but I can still type in commands and it clears up (when I type "win" to boot into Win 98) and shows it is dos4/gw professional 2001 error. This is a real disc copy. Any ideas? I was going to try dos32a, but I don't really know how to do it because the exe is on the disc. I guess dos4gw is embedded in the exe since there is no actual dos4gw.exe. All the game installs is two .bat files. CPU is Core 2 Duo and sound card is Aureal Vortex 1. Here's a pic of the error and the game's .bat

On my 486 with PC-Dos none of the DOS4GW version run, regardless if I use himem, emm386 from dos or win3x. what helps is using QEMM386.
