"Digitized sounds are not available in Enhanced Mode due to the nature of preemtive multitasking.Use Standard Mode to allow for digitized sounds"

.This is the answer when i try to set sound on from the options... i use Windows Xp HOME..

Use the compatibility options (right-click the executable -> Properties -> Compatibility). Set the compatibility mode to Windows 95.

If that fails, check the manual or readme on how to start the game in Standard Mode.

sounds like a game designed for windows 3.x
I think you should be happy that it runs at all.
for all windows above 3.x enhanced mode is the only and default mode

[The Fifth Horseman]

In that case, use Microsoft Virtual PC running Windows 3.x. VPC is freeware, and can be downloaded from Microsoft.

Tested BC in dosbox0.72+win3.0.
For enabling sound start win3.0 with 'win /s'.
Works then with ' digitalized' sounds.

But honnestly said, if you haven't setup dosbox+win3.0 yet for something else, don't bother, the sound is something as a broom sweeping over sandpaper when the pieces are moving ...... :tai:
Don't bother , really.

-> WfW won't do it, doesn't do the '/s' switch.
-> Won't run in win2.x.

That's 'bout it.

I never did get the sounds to work either although I gave up quite quickly and could not be bothered to install win 3.11 :)

it was wierd though without any sounds it just didn't seem the same as I used to play it quite heavily about 8-9 years ago ( not winning very often though :whistling: )
