I thought I would clear up some misinformation. The version uploaded here has some problems you need to fix before you can play it, no matter how you run the game.

1. Stability -- the dos4gw.exe in this game is terrible and causes crashes. Download a new dos4gw, preferably 1.97 or newer.

2. Sound -- for some reason, that sound files aren't in the proper directory. Copy all the dlls, ani, tab, and other non-exe files to the DATA subdir. That enables sounds.

VDMS notes (win 2k, xp)
Disable MIDI and joystick
Cap dos timer rate
Slow down the cpu according to how fast it seems
Enable VESA video

This works to get the game running and with sound as well. Only the "win" screen is jerky.
