Privateer

I have a problem with starting privateer. The following error occured:

Error code E001-FFFF
Program halted by code
JEMM unloaded

I 've tried a long time to configure Win98 to display enough memory under dos and there is now enough of free conventional memory, I think. Maybe the error occured, because my bootdisk, is not the right. Maybe I just need to change my files ... but I don't know how ... somebody there, who can help me?

Sorry for my bad english ... greetings from germany
 
Welcome to the CZ !!!
Pleas post your Autoexec.bat, Config.sys, Dosstart.bat and the specs. of your computer.
 
I have an Intel Pentium 133 with 48 Mbyte RAM and Windows 98

Autoexec.bat
Set sound=c:\progra~1\creative\ctsnd
Set midi=synth:1 map:e mode:0
Set blaster=a220 i5 d1 h5 p300 t6 e620
Mode con codepage prepare=((850) c:\windows\command\ega.cpi)
Mode con codepage select=850
Keyb gr,,c:\windows\command\keyboard.sys

Config.sys
Device=c:\windows\command\display.sys con=(ega,,1)
Country=049,850,c:\windows\command\country.sys

Dosstart.bat
C:\windows\ctpnp

With this configuration I have free conventional memory of 472 KB under Dos and the program tells me, there is no enough memory. After booting I have free memory of 593 KB and the error message appeared.
 
Try this one works for me.

Try this.
First create a shortcut and make the commandline in the program tab and add

C:\windows\command.com

To the working line add

c:\windows

next click advanced.
tick ms-dos mode
select specify a new msdos configuration and add these line to the cofig.sysys box

DOS=SINGLE
DOS=HIGH,UMB
FILES=50
BUFFERS=50
DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\HIMEM.SYS
DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\EMM386.EXE ram


In the Autoexec.bat box add

SET TMP=c:\windows\TEMP
SET TEMP=C:\windows\TEMP
SET PROMPT=$p$g
SET winbootdir=C:\WINDOWS
SET PATH=C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND
Set sound=c:\progra~1\creative\ctsnd
Set midi=synth:1 map:e mode:0
Set blaster=a220 i5 d1 h5 p300 t6 e620
C:\windows\dosstart.bat

and try it you may need to add and lines for you cdrom and mouse but i've added you sound details.

Try it and see. If the display doesn't work add this line to the config.sys

Device=c:\windows\command\display.sys con=(ega,,1)

This should give you a dos enviroment with enough memory to work if not post again.

PS in c:\windows there might be a few ms-dos short cuts which active ems or xms memory in dos-section be fore using my method have a look for them try them starting with an M or an S.
 
It doesn't work with your instructions, but with your help I could modify my old bootdisk and now I'm ready to take off ... :-) Thanx for your quick help ...
