I'm just chalking this up to BETA status, although it does make you wonder why so many of the NEW releases crash. For example, in pure DOS, all of the DECO Cassette games crash with a processor dump if I run them. I originally had a problem with 36 Final doing this for Metal Slug, but I narrowed it down to EMM386.EXE. I stopped loading it (didn't really have a reason for loading it to begin with), and the problem cleared up. However, with 37B13, that doesn't really seem to matter...
: Has anyone else noticed that MANY games under b13 will crash if you run them under pure DOS? When I test them under a windows DOS box, they all work fine. Games like Bubble Bobble, Metal Slug, etc... It almost seems like more don't work than do.
: If anyone else has seen this, did you find a workaround?
