EMX Program - Can't get it to work!

2003-08-19 by jdowning_wood

Okay, after many hours wasting my time with EMX and trying to 
get it to work I have resorted to posting a message. 

First, has ANYONE ever got this program to work? How!?!?

1st attempt seemed to work until I loaded the disk on th emax. 
The sounds where all garbled (like a bad loop) but actually 
loaded. But I was using DOS inside Win 2000 I found out that 
was my mistake. 

2nd Attempt. So I got out an older PC running Win 98 and 
restarted in DOS mode, but now the EMX program says my 
floppy disk sectors are bad (brand new DS/DD disk formatted on 
the emax), even tried foramtting in EMX but got the same results.

3rd Attempt. Started from a boot disk, same results as 2nd 
attempt.

Do I need to istall just MS-DOS on my HD? How?!!!

Any help would be great!

Thanks all
