hey there,

im trying to play old school dos games with dosxbox, and after i "enter the name of this game", the system hangs.

i am running my games off of cd due to lack of harddrive space. trying to start with either descent or duke 3d. any tips?

those 2 games were ported to the xbox just download them and save yourself the hastle of using dosbox.

word, good tip. but in other games, such as monkey island, they all seem to freeze up on me. any idea whats up with my dosxbox?

what games exactly, because i think monkey island is a scumm game that should be using the scumm emulator. just like games like full throttle and day of the tentacle.

heres the compatibility list, test some games that are fully working

also remember that you can mess with the settings, press X on the game, raise the ram adjust, the cpu cycles
but you shouldn't really have to adjust anymore than that since you should adjust the sound and video settings in the actual game setup file, even if it's a separate file.

Wow.... really?

I didn't know you were still around these parts D

Are your games zipped?
