Right well i copied all the files from the CD to a folder called DUNE.

So in DOSBox i mounted a drive called F with the folder e:\dune

then ran the program and it ran the setup again... so i moved the .bat file into this folder... and set the saved games to be saved to f:

Then they game ran!! With sound... but its jerking... not smooth... any ideas?

First check if it's a performance/speed issue or not, by increasing the number of CPU cycles and maybe even skipping a frame.

If that doesn't help, you'll have to fiddle with Dosbox' sound settings. I'm not an expert on those, so I hope someone else can give you guidance on those. Personally I just try a few drop-down combinations in D-Fend (for example "type of soundblaster") and see which one works best.

I think I had the same problem...

When you install dune it creates, as you said, a folder DUNECD. Edit the bat - file in this folder. Go to the line where the command is that runs dune, it has argument: two for music, language and extended memory. If you've done setup correct, there is a number behind one of the music arguments. Delete it.

Try also writting at the beginnig of the bat file:
SET BLASTER = A220 I5 D1
(If these are your soundblaster settings)

I'm sorry that I could not give you a concret help, I installed it on another computer, I will get there this weekend. So if you're still having problems, on monday I'm back and am able to post the bat file.

I liked this game alot, so two days ago I purchased the game for a small amount of 8$.
I bought "The white label"-version, and what a suprise. The animations were stunning. In tha abandonian-version, which I guess is the original (correct me if I'm wrong) you just fly over some dunes and rocks. In The White Label Dune you fly in i virtual world, round large dunes and in narrow mountain-valleys.
The Sietchs is remade on the outside so it blends in to the games atmosphear, the castle got filled of statues on the outside.
Almost everything that was a bit "bad" or not so well made in the originalversion has got an facelift.

Or is it just me who didn't install the abandonian-version correct...

Why not put the remake up here for the people the play. Those who like Dune will LOVE the White label. The files are in total on 360 MB. But what the hack, it's so worth it.
Contact me if you want the game and have an e-mail without maximum size, i'm not soo keen on sending away my CD...

Have you tried Dos Box yet? Make sure you install your sound driver.
Please consult this page if problems keep coming back.

*edit*
Sorry do not look at this page, I thought you meant Dune II.
