sounds like too much work really. What a complete disappointment. This is the kind of thing that makes PC Gaming completely worthless.

[Eagle of Fire]

If you are comparing PC gaming to console, then I just can't agree with you.

not at all. I like both, but prefer PC because I wanna be spoiled with the options and better visual clarity. I mean it's not worth it to do all this adjusting and tinkering to get old ones to work. I'm just going to have to set aside old PCs and link them by KVM or something...

Well, if no luck you have no other choice but to get a old PC. Because those games work fine on my PC.

I think WC 3 & 4 are just two of these completely-non-Win-compatibile games.

As I remember they were pretty damn dos incompatible too!

That's because they use a lot of memory. You need to follow the instructions in the manual to change your bootdisk config.

I played WC3 less than a month ago using DOSBox in XP. As I recall, I had no big problems.

can you step us through the installation then?

Well, I don't really remember what I did. I'll try reinstalling tomorrow and see what I can come up with.

For now, all I can say is get the latest version DOSBox, and make sure that you have ems=false in the config. Obviously you also need to mount the cd-rom drive properly.
