Can any of you shed light on the topic of configuring to run games based on the Build engine under Windows XP?

And I got a flaming bag of shit for the first person to recommend DOSBox, which works utterly shittily with MY box.

Nice reply, codpiece face.

Been there, done that. I'm having specific issues that just ain't being resolved. I want to gather as much anecdotal information as I can.

Good thing I don't know ya. I have a thing for shitting on the cars of people who piss me off.

^rather it be your head?

Got it to work. Big thing is running in compatibility mode with the correct virtual soundcard emulation and assorted patches. Sound still ain't 100%, but it's good enough for a lil nostalgia gaming.
