Did anyone check the price for Virtual PC? $199.00. You can buy a old 486 with monitor and DOS install for under $50.00. Not to take anything from Virtual PC, but the price tag is a factor.

Just making sure. Your Profile has your start date at 06-07-2000. Two years and only 70 posts, who knows. :cool:

Darkmage, where is this "preset" you are talking about. Also, I hope someone would save these instruction on CIC. Are you able to get a joystick to work?

Your kidding, right?

So your using the Windows version of P2. You are also dual booting with XP and Win98. First lets look that Win98. Make sure that SB16 Emulation is installed. Make sure these lines are in the autoexec.bat and config.sys --Autoexec.bat-- SET BLASTER=A220 I7 D1 H7 P330 T6 SET...

TC, do you use the exact same memory settings you use for P1 for each DOS base WC game? I know I don't.

It's doesn't really matter if you can see the difference or not. As a Sys Admin I get pay to make things as simple as possible. Since the days computers and punch cards were first created we been creating batch files so we don't have to keep entering the same commands over and over again...

They don't use the same memory setting as P1. Each game needs there own settings for optimizing each game's performance.

I have a memory setting set for each game. That the main reason for having a menu driven boot files. If you wish I can email you my boot files so you can examine them yourself. Just post your email address. Nothing lasy about creating a menu. As a unix admin you write batch files all the time.

That's why I play it in software mode.

Read your manual on Calibrating the Joystick. With KS running your support to do the Alt-Esc back to windows and Calibrate your Joystick.

Post your autoexec.bat and config.sys. I what to see if the DOS drivers for the SBLive is install correct. You are using the DOS version of P2?

I also have a DOS machine, it's a old IBM 330 P60. I have Armada, Privateer 1, Righteous Fire, Academy, Renegade: Jacob's Star and Star Controller 3 all install on it. I've created a menu driven autoexec.bat and config.sys so all I have to do is pick a number to launch the game I wish to play.

That the great thing about the USA. We suit everyone.:D

Win2000 Pro ship with Sun Java, XP did not. MS is mad at Sun over a lawsuit reguarding Java which Sun won. So it stop supporting Java. Sun is now suiting MS for not supporting it under Anti-Trust laws.

Thanks Wedge for pointing out my typo.:)

Thanks, Filler. I take back everything bad I ever said about you.:D heheh

But Wedge your special.;) Actually I see it too.:) peltsi20, if you are using IE you may need to get Sun Java JRE version at http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/download.html MS is no longer supporting Sun's Java. That site was done in Javascript.

Actually I would have to disagreed with you. He's been showing his inexperience on almost every thread he either started or posted to today. He's also been getting blasted on these thread. He has no ideal why. If we're going to blast him we should let him know why. I would dare to said that...

Personally I like more older games than newer games because of storylines. Games like FS/FS2, XBTF, and Starlancer may have better graphics and game play. But WC games have better storyline. For me I play the combat scenes so I can turn the page to the next cut-scenes
