I have them Dragon's Lair DOS games myself but I been looking for somesort of a PATCH to patch up not to ask them QUESTION to start the game. Is there such PATCH out there to bypass this copy protection scheme? I have Dragons lair 3 (DOS) Singes Casltle (DOS). Im lokoing for Patch for both of them.
Now as far as your problem goes, you have your EMM386.EXE in your config.sys. Then put in at the end of your autoexec.bat EMM386 OFF.
Then when you need to run DL, make a batch file to call EMM386 then the EXE for DL and don't forget to add at the bottom again EMM386 OFF.
Yea thats it just turn on when needed and off when not. I have a couple of DOS games like TEMPEST 2000 that needs EMM386 and this is what I did.
: OK, I have an AMD 500, 64 megs pc100, and a 10 gig hd...I am running ArcadeOS in Dos6.22.
: I want to be able to run Dragon's Lair and Space Ace as well ( the old dos cd's)
: I Need emm386 to run the laser games...but when I add theline to the config sys them mame causes page faults on most games.
: Can someone help me setup my config.sys efficiently to get me the most memory...hopefully in a way that I can play all these games without rebooting
: Thanks,
