Hardly satisified with the typical NES/SNES/Geneis etc emulators, I'm also digging into my 486 gaming history with DosBox. While this isn't the first time I've been running the program, I've taken the insanity a step further and installed Windows 3.1 on it as well. However, I've run into two hickups that I wouldn't mind help with...
1 - Mouse doesn't work; While with everything else I've run in DosBox has worked with the mouse no problem, it seems Win3.1 ignores all mouse input, dispite seeming to recognize it (as a Logitech). While I can do some navigation via keyboard, not being able to use the mouse kind of defeats the purpose.
2 - No sound; I figure this is just a matter of finding the right drivers and using them within DosBox, but can anyone help me figure out how to get Win3.1 to recognize proper sound output?
EDIT; Alright, after a little bit of setting tomfollery I managed to solve both of my problems. Now it's Windows 3.1 as I remember it down to the classic sound sets (it's just not Win3.1 without the classic 'tada.wav' start up). I've also tested a few games and they work like a charm. I'll probably spend the week installing more classic games, there upon backing it all onto DVD so I don't need to do all this over again.
So, a means of discussion, what were some of your favorite DOS/Windows games of old? I'm currently planning on doing another playthrough of God of Thunder, Stunts, and Castle of the Winds myself.
