3.1

I am thinking about buying windows 3.1 but i have quite a few questions. Can i just move the win 3.1 files onto a folder called doswin or is the disk or disks copy protected and just install the thing on my d dive with dosbox or will i not be able to use windows xp which is on my c drive. I am …

Re: Wacky Wheels sound problem

As strange as this sounds but the game will play nicely on a xp without dosbox if you choose sound blaster for sound and for music just choose general midi. The game must be installed in dosbox but once installed it runs great without dosbox. You will get 100% perfect quality sounds and music. The …

lighthouse

Thos was an awesome game from sierra. The problem is that it won't run without dosbox but once it gets to a part where you need to switch the disks with dosbx you can't switch disks so it is impossible to get very far with dosbox on lighthouse. Does anyone know of a way to fix the problem. I can't …

Re: Strange thing

Strike base is a 3d game that is somewhat similar to dune. almost all Games from 2002 and later run slowly or crash when a lot is going on. I use dos box 0.63,0.65,0.60 and 0.58. nfs hp2 runs too slowly too be considered playable. nfs underground runs too slowly too be considered playable, morrowind …

Re: Strange thing

I know what protected mode is. I still think dos box does not fully support protected mode as strike base is a protected mode game with similar requirements to quake and it runs with 7500 cycles at normal speed but quake runs too slowly no mattar what you do. Doom runs great at 7500 cycles. tomb …

Strange thing

Strikebase has similar requirements to quake 1 but strikebase runs fine at 7500 cycles. I think dosbox doesn't fully support protected mode. Strike base is a protected mode game and it runs at regular speed and has similar requirements to quake 1. Another strange thing if you play wacky wheels on a …

Is the new sound blaster fully backwards compatible with previous versions. I want check for sure if it is backwards compatible with older versions.

winbox

My last idea was dumb but i think their should be an early windows emulator as many games especially direct x 6 and lower have troubles running on new operating systems if you do not believe me than try playing nfs 2se with a brand new windows xp and over 512 mbram and see what happens. nfs2se has a …

I have a question

I don't kno how to do all of this but i wanted to make dos box a lot more user freindly. Here is how it works get rid of the blue screen on the top and put a few words on the top which would b if you want help type help. It would look much more like dos because dosbox does not feel like your using …
