I found the issue for real this time!. Sierra games in particular like to install a game in a subfolder (BC, KQ1, ZELIARD, etc.) and place a batch file with the same name (BC.BAT, KQ1.BAT, ZELIARD.BAT) alongside that folder. When the game folder and a file with the same name exist alongside one …

Still having the issue with 0.96beta3 rcblanke wrote on 2022-03-29, 17:48: Thank you Digitoxin, this should now be resolved in the new beta build. All the latest files. To upgrade, just update dbgl.jar. Ronald

I did two stupid things with some old PC hardware. Both actually worked, but I don't recommend trying them. 1. I had a Packard Bell Legend 286-12 PC. The I/O controller on the motherboard failed. It handled floppy and IDE hard drives (and maybe serial and parallel. I can't recall). I tried putting …

I used the beta version you sent me in a PM and tried to open the game folder of several profiles with the following results. Here is the debug output of profiles that open fine: Determining canonical game dir: J:\DOSBoxGameLauncher\dosroot\Beast Within, The - A Gabriel Knight Mystery\data\SIERRA …

Looks like this is only an issue with the TX and HX. SX uses standard molex connectors for drive power. I think you need to be careful replacing or adding the 3.5 drives as it sends power through the ribbon cables? That might be the TX and TL only, I forget. Nerdy Pleasures has a lot of great info …

I've been looking to pick one of these up for a while now. I finally found a Tandy 1000SX on eBay in very good condition with very little yellowing. It has 384K of RAM and two 5 1/4 inch floppy drives. I have already ordered the following upgrades: 1. 256K memory upgrade (to bring it up to 640K). I …

The drive is configured correctly in the BIOS. It is a 1.2M Floppy drive and is configured as such. I can read and write both 360K and 1.2M floppies fine in Windows. In DOS, if I try to access any disk in the drive I get a General failure reading drive A error. I have tried both MS-DOS 6.22 and …

Its connected properly as drive A. When trying to read any disks in DOS, it attempts to read the disk, but I get General failure reading drive A. I have no issue reading the same disks when in Windows.

I have a Core 2 Duo machine that I use for running legacy software and backing up my floppy disk collection. it was one of the last platforms to support floppy drives, but it only supports a single drive. I currently have a 5 1/4 drive installed in it. I'm using the machine to make backups of my …

"I figured out what is causing Open game folder to not work. Below are two examples. One of a working profile and one of a profile that doesn't work. First is the working profile. Notice the executable WILLY.BAT is one folder level in from the mount point. mount C "Adventures of Willy Beamish, The\ …

Thanks for the quick response. I'll keep looking to try to find what is common about the profiles that won't let me open the game folder and let you know if I figure it out. I notice when this feature works, DBGL drills in further into the folder of the main executable and doesn't just open the root …

I just started using DBGL to manage my game library. It is an excellent application, but I have run into a few issues. 1. Right clicking on many of my games and choosing Open game folder causes a window to briefly pop up and then close. I haven't been able to determine why the game folder for some …
