Hi Dennis! :-)

Since Eric already kindly answered, nothing more than a reminder here:

Since you're already experienced with DOSBox, take a look at its pages ( 
http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/news.php?show_news=1 , 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/dosbox ), as well at Wikipedia reference ( 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DOSBox ), for help.

If you cant find there, what you want, search at its forum and if you still 
can't find an answer, please write a post at its forum. You can find it 
there: http://vogons.zetafleet.com/index.php?c=7 (ignore the other forums on 
this page).
---

I'm sugesting also (since you're running XP), to take a look on VDMS 
(although its actually the DOSBox predecesor (as you can see at DOSBox 
"thanks" page), it has a totally different approach (more suitable for older 
systems, for sound emulating).
You can find its pages there:
home page: http://sourceforge.net/projects/vdmsound/
dl page (v2.0.4): 
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=20091
forum page: http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=63541 (you'll 
need a (free) SF.NET account, if you don't already have one).

VDMS stands for (NT)VDM Sound.
What is NTVDM? Please look there: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTVDM .
---

If both fail, you'll need a more complete (entire FreeDOS emulation) 
solution (like the (both free) VMWARE server or MS VPC 2007 and other. 
Please look at Eric's post), so please post again.
Anyway, please post again, if you'll need anything.

Good Luck!
Giorgos. :-)

Re: [Freedos-user] Display Mode Change

[Alain M.]

Yes, there is active development in NDN...

As for impouving it's display functions I can help, but only if somone 
can make a detailed howto of how to set up it's compile environment. 
Usualy this can take days which I don't have to spare, but I have some 
experience with PC's video. Specially on the compatibility issue.

[Freedos-user] Delorie.com?

[Gordon . Schumacher]

Anyone know, by any chance, what happened to delorie.com?  It appears to
have vanished.

Looks like the web server is down, or otherwise unreachable:


# host www.delorie.com
www.delorie.com is an alias for delorie.com.
delorie.com has address 207.22.48.162
delorie.com mail is handled by 10 delorie.com.

# ping 207.22.48.162
PING 207.22.48.162 (207.22.48.162) 56(84) bytes of data.
>From 208.48.236.130 icmp_seq=4 Destination Host Unreachable
^C
--- 207.22.48.162 ping statistics ---
12 packets transmitted, 0 received, +1 errors, 100% packet loss, time 10999ms


Possibly an upgrade on their box?  Or a network problem on their end?

very much appreciated.

doesn't quite sound like freedos would work for me, though maybe if i can 
find a laptop with a serial port, it would?

I need to try it on other PC, but I need some time, and I think mode detection
should be carry out by an external utilities and write the result in a
"vmode.ini" to let the main program use it without crashing anything.

>> Have you contact the developer of Necromancer DOS Navigator?

I want to test on other similar model PC, to make sure this is really a
"problem", rushing to report may not help.
