Clone dumped right the first time, DTProAD 5.2.0. on host XP SP2 with Shattered's instructions, installed and played on same host & an emulated IDE drive, works flawlessly attached to (and detached from) physical. Image split and pending upload this weekend (waiting for stable connection, plus to make scans along the way). Proven once again that Tages (and the game) works with updated drivers on W10, so hfric's problem may be that of emulation instead (will verify ASAP when I get hold of latest crk'd Tages&W10 compatible DTPro, or Alcohol, or something)...
for the infos & support myloch, hoping as well that there may be more valiant h4ck3r-forumers up for the challenge
