The correct question is... are you using DosBox at all?

Is there any way of getting the mouse to work with this game? It seems to only let me play using the keyboard, and I find it rather difficult to capture ghosts with the keyboard due to the speed ghosts move at...

Who Ye gonna Call............? Eh, well someone who can help I hope.



Hello Ladies and Gentlemen, I am having trouble running this game, (and I REALLY want to play it as I am a HUGE fan of Ghostbusters and was VERY disappointed with the Commodore 64 version of the game).


I run games through D-Fend v2. I download the game but when I go through the Profile Editior there I can't install the game as there is no Setup Exe file in the folder.
Could someone please please tell me is there something else I can use instead of the Setup Exe there so I can install and run the game?


I really wanna get this working because, Bustin' Makes Me Feel Good



Thank you very very much, have a good time.

I suggest you run the game without D-Fend.

I've never tried to do this sort of thing before, but I noticed somone wanted to use their mouse and well, I know a way that worked for me. Sooooo...
Assuming you're using Dosbox and you've already mounted the folder that GB is in:
What you want to do is simply type install.bat and press enter when the setup screen appears press F3(change input device), press F3 again(mouse), press F4(finish) and finally press F1(save config file). Then, back at the command prompt, type GB2 and enjoy the newfound use of pointing devices. :-)


Oh shoot, that post was from like a year ago. Man am I dumb ha ha.

Is it just my DOSBox settings, or do the ghosts move faster when playing with the keyboard than with the mouse?

dear all,

i tried to play this game using dosbox 0.65 and dfend 2, but with no luck, always freeze after the action on court room, anybody can help to fix this up? fyi I using all the default function on dfend.

thanks & regards,

0.65 is an outdated version of DosBox and D-Fend is known to cause random crashes in games that work fine on plain DosBox.

So, use DosBox 0.70 and don't use D-Fend.

No, I don't believe the ghosts move faster when using the keyboard. It just appears that way because you can't move the pointer as quickly as you can with the mouse.
