| Rogue | You have to properly set DFend to be able to save in Syndicate. Make sure that your C drive is poiting to right direction. Game that I have will create folder Synd in C drive, where all of your saves will be stored. I also keep my other files in the same folder, so that I have not to place CD rom while playing. | |

So far, this thread has helped me get sound and speed the game up to a reasonable pace (I haven't tried flamethrower yet though!), but I can't F*ING SAVE the game! I click save, and it just won't save the damn game. Can anyone help me figure out how to save the game using D-Fend with DosBox? I can save the game if I run it off the CD, but then I get no sound on my XP machine, but if I run it with D-Fend, I can play the game with sound, but no save! HELP! |

You'll need to setup soundblaster emulation for your soundcard then with that you can set the hardware settings and link to them from dos software. if you have a creative card (audigy, live etc) then you'll be laughing.. or you can download VDMSound and have that do all the background emulation for you |

holy googely moogely! those files are really put into incorrectl folder. anyway i moved them to data and guess what now i have music but still no sound (effects)! so i changed the IRQ from 5 to 7. this provided me sound in the menu. but when i start the game it crashes.  i really don't know what could be wrong. too bad there is no soundsetup file where it owuld detect my card automaticly. |

| The snark | Heyyah, how do I create a custom configuration with VDSM? | |

| BeefontheBone | DOSBox will slow it down and should help with the sound. you may be able to use VDMSound to get sound in XP, and there are several programs like MoSlo around which can slow things down in XP. | |

Hiya all, okay I can get Syndicate to run without using DOSBOX and unsurprisingly don't have working sound. That's fine, I'm taking notes from the various advice and should be able to sort that. However I can't figure out how to slow the game down. It runs at a ridiculous pace, I'm lucky if I only lose two of my guys when I encounter the first enemy agent in the first mission. If two agents turn up together I'm instantly dead. Do I need to run it through DOSBOX to be able to slow things down ? Thanks. My memory agrees with another 'recent' poster. I used to play the Amiga version and completed Atlantic Accelerator by using multiple shields (4 or 6 per agent) and they gave near permanent shielding. After that it was mostly just a case of wading into the crowds with flamers or the occasional time bomb. Still took ages but at least you didn't have to worry so much. |

Yeah, tweaking the .bat file didn't work for me either... mind you, I'm not sure where to find the info on my sound card, I jsut plugged in the numbers you suggested. As far as I know, I have a SB Live!. I also tried searching for patches or fixes on google and other search engines... but I had a hard enough time finding the game in the first place and I doubt people are going to make fixes
