[QUOTE="sepik, post: 859467, member: 74435"] Yeah, some MS-DOS era games were memory hungry, you need 630k base memory to even get the game start. So you need to use in config.sys and autoexec.bat to load for example cd-rom, mouse etc drivers to "upper memory". So by using EMM386 you need to specify, for example /I b7-b7ff memory block thats is reserved area for cga/hercules, so you can free it and put your cd-rom driver on that memory block...those were the times :D [/QUOTE]
