Can't Run KQ7
Posted: Sat May 05, 2012 2:40 pm
Hi. I'm trying to run my old KQ7 game. I've installed DOSBox in "Program Files (x86)" and ran this website's KQ7 installation from my CD-ROM which went smoothly. However, whenever I try to run the game, it shuts down on its own right after the crown-shaped cursor appears (and the screen is still black). I have tried modifying the screen size to full and changed other options, but the same happens. Got any ideas? Please note that my game is in French, but I assume it should crash at that particular point based on that...
Here's my log:
