I was pretty happy to be able to grab Conquest of the New World Deluxe Edition on Ebay for about 20 bucks (Yeah, I finnaly got over my fear of using my credit card... <_<). Unfortunatly for me, it seems that I have a lot of trouble to make it run properly now that I actually have the game packaged in a nice original box with a strategy guide and the manual etc etc...

So far, the only thing which worked is DOSBox. 0.63 works slowly at around 14k cycles on my 2 gig machine. 0.61 works slightly smoother but even slower. DOSBox doesn't seem to be fast enough since the movies and the intro slutter and lag.

When trying to use VDMSound, Windows crash telling me it encountered an error running the game so it need to close. The game doesn't work at all with any compatibility options thus far without the help of VDMSound (at least with VDMSound the game try to innitialize itself before crashing).

Any help on making this game run right on my machine or make it run smoother and/or faster with DOSBox would be appreciated.
