Problems with Dosbox (DM2)

Post by Vertigo »

Hello there!

I just tried starting Dungeon Master II with Dosbox v0.61. My problem: it runs quite slow and just before or after the FTL logo, the program exits with the message

"Exit to Error: Interrupt to higher privilege".

Sound works, though. Has anybody experienced the same problem or has anyone an idea what the heck that could mean? I run xp, btw.

You can answer in German if you want.
Thanks,

I suppose you did start the dm2.bat (as it shoud be) and not the skull.exe (which won't work)?

Have you looked at this post?

Some other people had simular problems. Maybe your answer is there.


Hope it helps,

Mine exited after the FTL logo with no message when I forgot to ramp up the CPU cycles after clicking the shortcut to start the game. Then I figured out how to make a conf file in dosbox for dm2 which set the cycles at 10,000 automatically. No problems since then.
