Hi, I've looked through the posts here but I have been unable to find solutions for these problems. Any help would be appreciated.
I'm running the games on a 486 75Mhz with 16Mb RAM and an SBVibra 16 sound card. The games are taken from the WC1 and 2 CDROM.
When I play WC1 (which I have slowed to an acceptable speed with moslo) the ship spins uncrollably when I hold down the spacebar and a direction key. The troubleshooting guide blames this problem on incorrect mouse drivers but I have removed the mouse itself from the PC and deleted the references to the drivers in congfig.sys. Is there anything else I can do?
My other problem happens when I try to run WC2. I'm told that I have insufficent memory, despite having 16MB which is reflected in the config.sys.
Here is my config.sys:
DEVICE=C:\DOS\SETVER.EXE
DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS
DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE 16384 RAM
DEVICE=C:\DOS\OAKCDROM.SYS /D:MSCD000
DOS=HIGH,UMB
COUNTRY=044,,C:\DOS\COUNTRY.SYS
DEVICE=C:\DOS\DISPLAY.SYS CON=(EGA,,1)
FILESHIGH=30
BUFFERSHIGH=30
LASTDRIVE=D
and my Autoexec.bat:
SET SOUND=C:\SB16
SET BLASTER=A220 I5 D1 H5 P330 T6
SET MIDI=SYNTH:1 MAP:E
C:\SB16\DIAGNOSE /S
C:\SB16\MIXERSET /P /Q
C:\DOS\MSCDEX /D:MSCD000 /L
C:\DOS\SMARTDRV.EXE /X
@ECHO OFF
PROMPT $p$g
PATH C:\DOS;C:\PKWARE
SET PKWARE.INI=C:\PKWARE
SET TEMP=C:\DOS
MODE CON CODEPAGE PREPARE=((437) C:\DOS\EGA.CPI)
MODE CON CODEPAGE SELECT=437
KEYB UK,,C:\DOS\KEYBOARD.SYS
If anyone has any ideas I would be very grateful.
Thank you
Jim
