SBLive Dos mode SB compatibility in XP?
I'm trying to play an OLD game (eye of the beholder), which is a dos game. I have the most recent drivers loaded in Windows XP, and cannot get this thing working in DOS mode. I am just running the game in a windows, but still, no luck.
All the online docs refer to dos-based SB compatibility drivers, but I don't see those drivers anywhere. Any help would be appreciated. |

Make a shortcut to the game unless you already have one.Right click on it/Properties/Compatibility and try any and all options.One of them should help e.g run in win95 CPM or 256 colours etc. If not you can look for patches, http://www.gamesdomain.co.uk/patches/ Or you can use a Win95/98 boot disk to boot to dos, http://www.netpathway.com/~kramer/reinstall.html http://www.bootdisk.com HTH -- Free Windows/PC help, http://www.geocities.com/sheppola/trouble.html email shepATpartyheld.de Free songs download, http://www.soundclick.com/bands/8/nomessiahsmusic.htm |
