I'm having a slight problem playing WoX on XP. I've installed it with no trouble. I installed in my DosBox directory C:/DOS/CDRIVE.
If I try to play the game the normal way (clicking the icon), I only get a black screen in "Windows prompt" mode, but if I try to play it through DosBox, DB says I must insert the CD-rom wich I of course have already done.
Can anyone help?

EDIT: DosBox says I have a music CD loaded Blink

Finally got it to work, but it freezes in the intro when I see a spaceship formed like a dragon Frown

Meh, VDMSound pwns DosBox.

Running game on DosBox:
Open DosBox.
change settings.
change more settings.
mount drive.
ajust CPU cycles.
start game.
ajust CPU cycles some more.


Playing game with VDMSound:
Run game setup through VDMSound (Right click, select Run With VDMSound)
Setup sound settings as normal.
Run EXE through VDMSound (again, right click and select Run WIth VDMSound)
Enjoy.
Optianal: Make shortcut of VDMSound enabled EXE and place on desktop/startmenu.
TO play again, double click your new shortcut and enjoy.
