I did that but i keep forgetting how to use it

I'm not familiar with the command lines. I'm too lazy. I just added DOSBox to the context menu of applications. If you're using Windows XP and you installed the latest version of DOSBox to the default directory, use this >LINK< registry file and you'll be able to open EXE and COM files in DOSBox through the right-click menu. If it runs slow, press CTRL and f11 or CTRL and f12 to increase the CPU cycles to suit your computer.

Here's a simple guide to getting it to run in DOSbox. Create a folder in the C drive of your PC (Or whatever drive the hard disk is) called "Lemmings", and put all the files in there. Type the following into DOSbox:

mount c c:\lemmings
(This will tell DOSbox what folder to look in)
c:
(The left side will come up as z:, so you need to change it to the C drive)
Lemmings2
(Simple, just tells DOSbox what program to run)

That should work, and make sure you choose VGA mode if you're asked (I'm not sure about that: I've never played Lemmings 2 via DOS). If anything else goes wrong let us know.

I think you should run L2-fix instead. &#A0;I remember someone else having problem getting the game to work until he run l2-fix instead of lemmings2 directly.

Winlemm

Thanks!!! I'll try everything now
;D

Winlemm

Oh and i try l2 fix. it just says somthing about memory and nothing happens.

I think you're supposed to press ENTER at that point to proceed further.  But anyhow, as long as you get it to work.

Winlemm

I think i pressed every buton on the keyboard in frustration.
And it runs abit weird on dosbox-just before it starts up it says "not installed" :question :question :question :question :question

Jazzem

Does it generally run ok after that though?

Huh... I think this topic should be moved to the Technical Help forum.
I like dragons! They're the center of my life! I'll never forget them...

Winlemm

Yup ,it works.
And good point-why did i put it in this forum anyway  :question :question
