Hi I_AM,
i am also using Win2k
and my recommendations for these MSDOS
games are:
- VMWare
In my opinion the best solution but the prob is: its not freeware.
- DosBox/Abandonloader in conjunction with VDMSound for newer sound
cards
prob: sometimes sound goes async and its not running that smooth.
Some games are not supported.
- installing Microsofts ACT 3.0 (Application Compatibility Toolkit)
-> search after
- Code: Select all
act30pkg.exe
for Win2k.
Info: ATC 4.0 is for XP only!
To make a long story short, its installed on my system but i do
encounter better DOS compatibility so far. Duno what i did wrong...
I am still looking after a more handy solution to this odd Win2k/WinXP DOS problem.Replacing some dlls of the DOS kernel for example would be a cool solution.But i dont know which files and what effect the have on system stability.Many of those DOS games arent running on Win2k and WinXP at all...Rayman games for ex.
