I'm using a SB PCI512 so I have to use SB16 Emu if I want to play dos games but it seems that a good amount of my dos games don't like it. I can't run Privateer through a window and it'll lock up in pure dos the second I start the game. WC2 does the same but I haven't tried it in a window yet so...

:p

For some reason WC1,WC2 and Privateer will lock up my PC if I load SB16 Emulation. I know it's the SBEmu because if I rem the command lines they'll work (without sound or a joystick though :( ) . So I'm wondering if anyone has been able to get these games to work using SB16 Emulation. [Edited...

How fast is your CD Rom? I have the same problem but I just thought it might be my 56X CD-Rom reading too fast.

Ugh I should have done this before comming here but it seems that it's more my sound card than the game. I just found out that WC2 does the same thing. I also just noticed that it says it installs to IRQ5 at boot but Sbego.exe (program that came with my card to test it in DOS) says it's on...

Heh I said before that doesn't help ;) I can even put NONE under both in the install and it'll still lock up. The only way I can run the game is by not loading my soundcard at all (remming the commands) but then I'll lose my joystick =/

I don't have a SNDSCAPE.INI file is that the problem? The card works fin in Win98.

do you mean reinstall the game? It doesn't matter because it'll lock up even if I pick no sound and music in the game install. I can only get the game to run if I don't load my sound card at boot up. If you mean to reinstall my sound card then I'm puzzled on what you mean because it does install...

I have a SB PCI 512 and for some strange reason Privateer doesn't like it at all! I'm using a boot disk but the game will lock up my PC if I try and run it. However, if I boot up without loading my sound card the game will run but without sound or a joystick(my only joystick port that's not USB...

Glide is my mouse, it's one of those touchpad mice. Ok I'll try what you said.. I'm to put NOAUTO at the end om my DOS= command? So it'd be DOS=HIGH,UMB NOAUTO right? -------------------------------------------- Well that didn't work.. Without the B000-B7FF command I can't get more than 550...

I just saw this on a Starlancer fan site: System Requirements Microsoft Windows 95 Pentium (150 MHz or greater) Optional MMX rendering acceleration 16 MB of RAM required Any Microsoft DirectDraw compatible video card with at least 2 MB RAM (640x480x16 bit color) 60 MB hard-disk space 4x CD...

Well I'm useing a boot disk (one I made a while ago)I forgot what I used to make it but it gives me an option to boot with EMS or without so I've been useing it with all my dos games, worked fine untill now. Here's my Autoexec.bat: PATH C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND;C:\DOS;C:\WINDOWS; LH...

My EMM386 line from my config.sys is: DEVICEHIGH=C:\WINDOWS\EMM386.EXE RAM I=B000-B7FF 16384 I'm not really sure what the I=B000-B7FF does but if I don't have it there I'll only get 564 Conventional but with it there I'll get 604. It's a Avance Logic 3D sound card, it came with my PC. It's a...

Hmm could the sound file be bad? I mean this is an old game.. My friend coppied all his old disk games to cds in hopes of saving them but maybe he was too late..

Well that didn't work =( It's strange because it's not just the sound that stutters it's the game, it's like it's pauseing and unpauseing over and over untill the sound is done. I guess I could try putting my card on differant settings and see what happends..
