Sorry for triple post, but it appears that this topic is dead. :unsure:

I have a problem when operating for an aneurism. When I open up the brain with the retractors, and cut the first blood vessel, the electrocauterizer has absolutely no effect. The result is a messy fate for my poor patient. :wallbash:

Any ideas on how to correct this nasty bug?

I am running Dosbox Version .70. I play with the sound OFF.

This topic isn't dead. Just have some patience until another person playing this game comes around.

I need some help, :sos:
I have been playing for a couple of days now and always encounter the same problem. :angry:
I am trying to do the Brain Tumor op, everything is fine up to the part where I have to incise the dura, as soon as i start to cut I get lots of bleeders and I can't stop them eventually the patient dies through massive blood loss. Am I doing it wrong or is this a game problem. :angry: I am following the walkthrough on wikia.com

Running game under DosBox 0.70 with full sound no other problems I have even completed the Subdural hematoma operation a number of times.

To start again I quit DosBox and restart at the operating Theatre but the same happens.

Great game if this op is successful, any help appreciated. :sos: :wallbash:

When incising the dura using the mouse button it causes fatal loss of blood, holding the Enter key and using the mouse to move the scalpel still cuts the dura but not as many bleeders, they are easily dealt with using the cauterisor. :ok:

Next patient is an aneurism so I will try that tomorrow as its getting late now, will post how I get on.... :unsure:

HOTU has the only review of it I know of. No download there, so the game may not be AW.

I sometimes get funny lines on my monitor but sometimes the game only freezes. And this only happens when I'm incising the dura. I hope you guys can help me.
Thanks in advance,

try disabling the sound in setup and after you do it, enable it again

I have tried that before but it didn't help.. :(
any other suggestions? :)

and try increasing cycles, that sometimes causes the game to freeze too. or use core=dynamic in dosbox.cfg
