Another day, another Ripper issue.

This time is the case of error which comes during attempts of changing Disk 1 from Disk 2. Despite both virtual Windows XP and real Windows 8.1 recognizing Disk 2 as Disk 2 of Ripper video game, the game itself (run via DOSBox from virtual XP) doesn't and displays message ,,Incorrect Disk''. I've tried finding solution of this online, but it seems that nobody had similar one.

So once again I'd be very grateful for helping me with solving this issue, as I've began to really like this game 😀

Not when I've tried solving it by myself, but when you've told me it worked 😁 I'm just way too much used to gog.com versions of DOS games and I'm still learning using DOSBox by myself.

Thank you very much for useful tip, now I can return to Christopher Walken in his full FMV glory.

Ctrl-f4 is a Dosbox irk that needs to be done to refresh the drive cache whenever you change disks (or to change an image if you used imgmount).
