I have the Space Quest Collection (Vivendi).

All the Space Quest minus V seem to work fine after installing the 2006 DOSBox patch. Space Quest 5 worked before installing the patch.

I don't get an error or anything, it just looks like it will load up then crash.

Here are some specs if you need them. And I am sorry if this was answered already, I searched but couldn't find this issue.

1. MOBO: ASRock 970 Extreme3
2. CPU: AMD FX 4100
3. RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600
4. GRAPHICS: XFX HD-667X-ZHF3 Radeon HD 6670 1GB 128-bit DDR3 PCI Express 2.1 x16 HDCP Ready Video Card
5. Windows 7 64 Bit

I have tried installing older version of dosbox, but it didn't work. I can uninstall the patch, but then the other games have strange color issues.

Thank you in advance.[/list]

Use DOSBox 0.74.

An older DOSBox will not help compatibility with 7.

Sorry, I meant to say I am using .74 but tried using older versions.

And I got the patch from Sierrahelp.com

Then this is not a DOSBox issue. You should run the included diagnostic and attach the result on the Sierra Help Pages forum.
