So I finally got DG to run (downloaded it) but when it runs the screen is "off center" as in there is a black spot in the middle, the top is at the bottom, the bottom at the top. Like a piece of film that is off center, know what I mean? Know how to help?

Also I got the sound settings to test right in the setup, but that too is not working. Any help is greatly appreciated.


Already tried the compatibility wizard and putting it on 640x480.


DG is my fave game ever but have not played in over 3 years! Thanks for your help guys...

With "Dosbox" the game runs fine on my pc. You also have sound, speech and music. Dosbox is a MUST-HAVE for playing dos games without any restriction.

i do too. Dosbox is good for memories but the real deal was still better. EMS troubles, autoexec troubles,speaker sounds while playing games... and best games were in DOS.
