Mortal Kombat

[Anonymous]

Hello, I downloaded MK1 and for some reason I have no sound. Any suggestions on what this problem might be and how I can fix it?? Help is very appreciated, thank you. Oh, and I don't know if this is possible, but is there anyway I can change the control settings?? I'm new to this whole thing so I don't know much. Thanks again.

What are your system specs(XP, 2000), and how do you run your game(Dosbox, restarting into DOS, ect.)

xp, and I just click on the little dos icon that says MK for mortal kombat. I can play the game just fine, just no sound.

Try downloading DosBos and run it with that. Just search for dosbox to find it.

Ok. I downloaded dosbox, but how exactly do I run MK in it?? I'm not understanding how to use dosbox. Thanks.

You could also try VDMsound since it is probably the lack of DOS sound drivers in XP that is causing the problem.
DOSBox needs some experience to use properly but there is a nice overview of what to do here, http://vogons.zetafleet.com/viewtopic.php?t=2502

VDMSound can be found here, http://www.ece.mcgill.ca/~vromas/vdmsound/ or here http://sourceforge.net/projects/vdmsound/

Happy Gaming,

da-da-da-da da daaa! Dosboxxxxxxxxxxx Powerrrrrrrrrrr!
well how to use dosbox for novices. Type this:
Mount C YourDrive:\Yourdirectory
C:
the program you want to run. You dont have to include .exe or .bat most of the time
afterwards type exit to exit dosbox. And be polite.
so I wanna play Sopwith2:
Mount C G:\oldies\Sopwith2
C:
Sopwith2
Now I play the game
Exit dosbox Pleeeeeeease
