Re: Problems Installing Office Works

Thanks, that worked! It was that simple, I really do love DOSBox and the people that developed it. :) I've actually ran it into another problem. Before I can run OW, something called DataFlex needs to be installed in the termlist.cfg file. So I run the DataFlex setup and a list of settings comes up. …

Problems Installing Office Works

Hi there. Yesterday I came across my old copy of Office Works for DOS. Its on four floppy disks. I want to install it with DOSBox just for the hell of it really but I'm having trouble doing so. First, I mounted the C drive as a folder in my actual C drive (as I always do), then I mounted the A drive …

Re: Trouble trying to run a game in DOSBOX

1. Extract the zip files into a folder and put the folder into your C drive just so its easy to find. 2. Mount that folder as the C drive using mount c c:\folder name 3. Change the Z prompt to C by typing c: 4. Type ultima7 (I believe that is the exe/batch file for the game) and it should run. Hope …

Windows 3.1 Games

I dug up my copy of Windows 3.1 today, so decided to try it out by installing it via DOSBox purely for a bit of fun and nostalgia. I did so and it works perfectly.

Fast forward a few months to today and suddenly I find that when I increase the CPU cycles to 8000, the mouse cursor freezes. Can anyone explain …

Re: Getting a game called z to work

I actually found my copy of Z and played it through DOSBox only a few days ago, it worked perfectly right after I installed it. However, When I try to run the .bat, I get the same error. UPDATE: I just tryed something and it turns out that the missing file (and any others it says are missing) is on …

Re: Frontier: Elite 2 police check problem

Yep, all keys are where they should be. UPDATE: I think I have solved the problem! I tweaked a few options including the keyboard layout actually. Someone also recommended creating a folder called COMMANDR for saves. Whether that folder had anything to do with the solution, I'm not sure but …

Frontier: Elite 2 police check problem

Ok, its been years since I played it last but today I started playing FE2 again using Dosbox version 0.73. It seems to run perfectly. However, the game apparently thinks the letters I input for the police checks are wrong. After three police checks I get arrested and game over. I am sure the letters …
