Very well, I will look into the matter.

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.

In that case, my DOSBox settings must be wrong for the game....in the courtroom scene, using either keyboard or mouse, the two ghosts move fine. However, any ghosts after that change speed for keyboard. With the mouse, the ghosts move at the same speed as the two in the courtroom. With the keyboard, ghost speed is noticeably increased (I beleve it to be twice as fast as normal), and ghost catching is impossible.

Here are some of the settings I think might be affecting the game. Should I change them at all, or is it something else that's causing this problem?

memsize=63
core=dynamic
cycles=max

0.65 is an outdated version of DosBox and D-Fend is known to cause random crashes in games that work fine on plain DosBox.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

Hi, I tried using plain dosbox 0.7 yesterday, but still no luck, the game still hang after the courtroom scene. Does anybody has any advice on making this game works on dosbox?

did you run GB2FIX.exe before GB2.bat?

Memsize, for starters.
with a game this old, 63 MB RAM is an overkill - not to mention that this value was not possible for any configuration of RAM chips in any x86 machine. Consider dropping it to 8.

Alright, cheers. I'll mess around with it and hope for the best.

*EDIT* No luck, even when changing core to normal, and memsize to 2. I'll post y full config file, but would it have anything to do with the xms/ems/umb settings?
