Well, I finished a review and can't make screenshots. The game won't work in DosBox - not enough extended memory (How can that be fixed Data - you're saying you're an expert).
Tried Hyper Snap as well, but it keeps throwing the game out with only blank shoots.
The game can only run in WinXP, although it's old - and it can only run in fool screen mode, otherwise it shuts down!

Edit dosbox.conf and look for a line [dosbox] and under it you should see this line - memsize=64. Just raise the number if 64 MB is not enough.

Did that, but then it said I needed 2.5M convetional mem - only have 614k
Anyway I just downloaded some pictures about the game, that will have to do, unless I can get DosBox running!

I know, I had the same problem years ago with the original, but it worked after I used memmaker. Can something like this be done in dosbox?

"640k should be enough for everyone"

He was in fact only making fun of NASA, because at the time they still used 126k computers in Space Shutlles and said it's enough!
