nolfb.com works for me, so I guess that's what you should use.

Heh. Little typo. :rolleyes:
They did the same on the Dos Guide on the Home of the Underdogs page but I got it working so... :D

Might I inquire as to where you got that SysShock? I am in look of the fucking game since mine is a gimp with no guts.

About 2 years ago when it was hosted on TTLG. Also that was before I got the idea to let things download overnight so it took about a week to finish.

I tried playing with the CDSHOCK.BAT file and SS1 runs just fine with only the VDMS, Mok's System Shock XP patch, and MOUSE2KV.exe. Still can't play with music though. It plays really slow.

I've searched over the forums but didn't really find an answer for this problem.
I got the intro for SS1 to work w/ good audio. The ingame audio and video is fine... but I can't play in 640 x 480 rez. When I switch to it, the screen becomes incredibly garbled and there is no way to play. Simply cannot be done; it's a chore to get the cursor back over another rez button to change back. Finally, I can get it done... only to discover that the cursor took a hike! No more cursor back in normal resolution. I have to restart the DOS program to get it back.
Does anyone have a clue what might causing it or how to fix it?
SYSTEM-
Pentium Celeron ~2.5gigz.
RAM 256
Windows Home SP1/Updated as of today
Onboard gfx (64 meg) and sound cards
I've followed this FAQ to a T and everything works fine, I just wish to play in the higher resolution.

I hope no one minds me posting here, even though this is a Winxp/2k thread, I saw people with win98 setups asking questions here, and the win98 thread is dead as a doornail, so no dice there...
Anyway, whenever I try and run the game, I always get a "Salt the Fries!" error and it says i don't have enough memory for the mouse cursor; I did everything I was told to do, no dice. Then, When I try and run the game a second time (all of this time from the prompt), just to negate the crash, it crashes with a blank screen. :tsktsk: Why is it that I always have the freaky, messed up PCs!?
Specs: P4, 2 ghz, 256 Megs ram, onboard sound card, GeForce2MX 400 with latest drivers... anyone want to help the freak here?

So what would be the ideal OS/environment/hardware for SS1?
I still have my Win3.1 and dos 6.1 (?) disks from 9 years ago, an SB Awe32 sound card, and a PIII machine that I could get up and running.

I followed all the instructions, but I got a an error suggesting that files be set to 30. However, the shortcut made by VDMSound automatically sets the files to 40 in its dos environment. That should be enough. Maybe it's just this machine.
