Hi goggers! I'm sure there is something silly I'm missing but I bought a bunch of games during the big sale and I'm having problems getting them to run.
Ultima 5 opens dosbox, goes to the black screen like it is going to do the Lord British production deal, then just closes to desktop.
Ultima 6 does something similar but then closes to a dosbox screen when I cant do anything else.
The otherr games I can't play are Starflight 1 & 2.
Ultima 5, 6 and Starflight 1 will work if I install them at my computer at work (was just to test during lunch, I don't play games at work heh).
Starflight 2 still doesn't work though.
I read that running Starflight as administrator might help ... but could it be a problem with my DOSBOX? I do alot of gog gaming and had a stupid Vista 2012 virus last week that required a whole day to get rid of. Could I have a messed up DOSBOX?
Any suggestions wold be appreciated. (oh, FYI, so far Ishar 1, Realms of Arkania 1 & 2 work which I also bought during the sale and all my old gog purchases work too.)
