Just thought I'd dig out and try Syndicate Wars on my Athlon 2500, Win XP machine, and with a few issues thought I'd give Dosbox a go. However the installer throws up an "NTVDM CPU" error. If I ignore it, there's several more, and eventually the dosbox window shows a randomly positioned cursor bar. My searching and investigating of the FAQ etc. has uncovered no common fault, and the NTVDM seems to be associated with nVidia, certainly GPUs. I'm using an ATI 9600 Pro on nForce2 mobo.

Any ideas?

Okay, there was something wrong with using DAP and FireFox it seems. DAP was downloading 20 kb instead of 1.2 MB. Disabled DAP and poked a around a bit to get a full-size file. Thanks
