hi

i installed the dosbox to play the very first command & conquer ever. i have a 400mhz pc with windows xp. with the dosbox the game is so slow, that its just little fun to game it. may somebody tell me, how i can play the c&c in a normal speed? that would be greater then great!

second question. do somebody know, how i fullscreen the dosbox?

thanks for answers. :-)

fullscreen dosbox -> alt-enter

to run C&C on a 400 mhz machine => don't use dosbox.
try vdmsound

thanks buddy :-)

oh no. i installed vdmsound and started it. the result was only this:

"VDMSound DOS loader, versino 2.01 (Aug 04 2001)

Loading 'VDDLoader.dll'...

then the "command promt" or what programm ever closes and nothing happens. :-(

when i start the command and comquer with rungame.exe it gives me only a black screen and nothing happens.

do you know why or what am i doing wrong?

thanks for your answer.

I don't think C&C can work with VDMSound. I tryied it myself a long time ago and it refused to work.

On another matter tough, which OS are you using? VDMSound won't work with Win98/95, for example.

A 400mh/z is very slow to run this game, even on pure DOS. Trying to run it on DOSBox is pure suicide.

yes, it seems so... :-(

i have win xp and i would do anything to run c&c 1 normaly on my computer.

i get it now so far, that i could open the exe-file with vdmsound. but now the game sais me, that it cant find the cd inside of the cdrom? what happend? :-)

but i think, if the pc can (with the help of vdms) read the cd, the game will run!!! yeah!

do anybody know whats the problem here?

thanks!

a little correction:

it cant find the "cd rom DRIVE"! (not only the cd in the drive.) sorry...

Use boot disk on machine like that.
