Some older games require Expanded memory, or EMS, to run. For these games, you will have to enable Expanded memory in config.sys. If nothing else works, you may have insufficient memory free to run the game, or a software conflict within your system that is preventing the game from running. You'll need to boot up your computer with only the drivers needed for your hardware in memory. Video Problems Back to Top Many video problems in newer Dos based games are due to incompatible video card drivers.
Most manufacturers keep updated drivers for their cards available on their websites for download.
If you cannot find a VESA compatible driver for your card, try installing SciTech's display doctor. I can't hear any sound or music in this program. If you can hear sounds and music with other applications, but not in this game, check the game's documentation to see if there's a way to adjust the volume controls for sounds or music in the game. Next, check the sound setup for your game. Make sure that the settings for Port Address , IRQ , and DMA channel match the your sound card's actual settings.
