I'm still here, boys and girls, I only changed my angle of interest since getting an e-reader. Getting a nice collection of e-books (and reading them!) is a very time-consuming activity and it has my priority right now.
I still check in here every now and then and - of course- keep up my 4shared ...

Happy birthday from me too to all who support this fabulous site!
With a special thanks to Zobraks who in his turn 'hijacked' me from elsewhere. I didn't need a lot of persuasion to stay on though... :D

BTW it seems that 4shared.com decided to commemorate this happy event by doubling the size of ...

(browser crashes and their upload tool doesn't start uploading).

And a warm welcome from me too!!

I have the exact same issue with 4shared and found that if I restart my router/modem just before uploading to 4shared, all works fine for the first 0.5 GB or so. Not sure it will work for you too ...

Clue Chronicles is a point and click adventure game, single player ofcourse

Murder at Boddy Mansion is a lot like the 'regular' board game and you can choose to play as single player against the pc or in multiplayer mode

Don't know about the other ones

Sorry, my mistake! I get the exact same few cm gap in virtual Win98; it's in virtual Win95 where there is no problem
Runs smoothest in DosBox+Win3.11 though - on my pc anyway

Doesn't work natively on my XP, but runs OK under VPC+Win98 or Win3.1
I've also got a 'rip' with integrated DOSBox+win3.1 - just unrar and play directly under XP and probably Vista/Win7 too. It's only about 90 MB packed; if you like I can up it to see if that works for you?

usenocd is not valid in DOSBox and you seem to have skipped -t.
You got a reply about the same issue in your previous topic, check back there and/or see the DOSBox readme.txt to see where you went wrong

Vandell - Knight of the Tortured Souls 2002 [GERMAN]

Anyone wants this, as it's German-only? It's just been put up to a.b.games.adventures as an ISO and I can easily get it and put it to 4shared, but I don't want to bother if there is no interest.
I've got still far too many good English games lined up to want to play this one myself as my German is ...

Maybe stating the obvious, but is the mount command correct? Should be

mount D X:\ -t cdrom -usecd 0 -noioctl

X being the CD/DVD drive you're using on your PC and mind the spaces

Where in Time is Carmen Sandiego - Broderbund 1989

As this was my upload, I rechecked (unpacked the uploaded archives and mounted the .cue in DT)
No problems here, setup stayed on 7% for maybe 30 seconds, but total install was finished in about 2-3 minutes

BTW I didn't use the auto installer - I hardly ever do - but browsed the mounted CD and ran ...

My worst one was I think Next Life; it's the only game I've definitely uninstalled, deleted and erased after playing about one frustrating hour
