OK! I'm THRILLED that SOMEONE seems to know how to get DOSBox to work under certain applications. Here is a HUGE challenge for those of you who just like making old INTERPLAY games work under WINDOWS XP. I can sum it up in 5 words (hey-only ONE of them has MORE than ONE syllable) The 5 words are: CONQUEST OF THE NEW WORLD(CNW).
I have hit sites that claim to have the answers but FAIL miserably in their claims to have the solution. I understand the ins and outs of win95 compatability settings and the copy of CNW that I have CLAIMS to be win95 compatable. What I get is a blue window that tells me the available drives and how much RAM they all have and it asks me to choose between a Full installation and a partial installation. No matter how I set things I can't figure out how to get past this window. I've tried at least a 100 different ways to get in using DOSBox and without. Nothing has worked, including text-mode.com and 3 other so-called tutorials. Naturally, NONE of them mention the CNW WALL (as I have aptly dubbed it) and I find myself sl*%ing from tutorial page to tutorial page, seeking the 'questing beast'-like solution that eludes me as though I am some kind of Cyber 'King Pelanor' on a never ending journey to slay the Loch Ness monster.
So you think you're a PRO, do you? PROVE IT! Take up the challenge and show me how to slay the CNW WALL, SOUND N ALL! Show me that DOSBox DOES WORK. estrongblade
PS-mount d f:\ -t cdrom -usecd 0 -ioctl in DOSBox DOES NOT WORK HERE- NOR does mount c e, mount c f etc. etc. I continue to plug away....CNWmain.exe, mscdexnt.exe,\redir, dosx, cnwmain.exe- ALL TOTAL BUST! estrongblade
