Old DOS Games | |

If you are a little like me, you might have some old DOS games that you still like. I have some where the graphics work under XP, but the sound and joystick won't. An example of this is the Tie Fighter Collector CD-ROM for DOS. Everything works great, but the sound is horrible and it won't recognize any type of joystick. So, I was surfing around and found this freeware driver called VDMSound. It fixed everything and Tie Fighter works under Win XP!

Quote: for some great resources check the home of the underdogs, an abandon site ![]() That is an awesome site! If anyone goes there, make sure you have a pop-up blocker installed. DOSBox is good for really old stuff that would have run on a slow 486 or less. _______________ Gone but hopefully not forgotten... |
