I recently had an itch to play some of those old -oldtimey games. but there is a problem, windows 7 doesn't support old games very easily. So naturally i downloaded various sorts of emulation software to play the games. However i am currently trying to play Dungeon Keeper, and emulation just isn't working so far. I can actually enter the game either just using the .exe or by running it in an emulator. But the graphics of the game aren't displaying properly.

 

I tried to run in 256 colors mode, that didn't work.

 

I though that it might be possible that the graphics aren't working because this netbook doesn't have a dedicated graphics card. Is there anyway i could emulate a graphics card?

 

 

 

Also, does anyone have a personal proxy... my companies blanket/whitelists are getting annoying.

Are you using DOSbox? Dungeon Keeper is a pretty old game and even if your netbook doesnt have dedicated graphics you should be able to handle this EASILY. Maybe it's just your settings but unfortunately i'm not familiar with DOSbox.

Are you trying to run the original game or did you download the free one form Brothersoft?
