I have the original boxed game of LM:SFTK but suffered the same error 51 on taking the bus to The Kingdom even on an old DOS machine I have kept alive for such "antiques" so it has been left on a shelf gathering dust for years.
Having just discovered Dosbox & installed on a laptop, some on my older DOS unplayed/unfinished games are enjoying a new lease of life. I tried uploading the orig floppies into Dosbox but still hit the same error 51 after the bus sequence.
However by using the version on Abandonia & copying across my saved games, I've at last been able to continue past the crash location & enter the Kingdom to finish the game (but only if I continue to the end of the game on the abandonia version)
I have tried loading a saved game after the bus sequence back into the original floppy version in case such a save game may assist other players stuck at the samne point, but that just results in the same "51" error unfortunately.
Thanks very much DOSBOX & this site for allowing me to finally put this one to rest.
