Can anyone please tell me how to make Stunts work under Windows XP? I've tried it all, compatibility mode, memory management, you name it. It just crashes even before the opening screen...
Please help!

Fuddha

run setup and select PC speaker. It should work afterwards, if not try to strat a command prompt window, alt+enter and run from there.

Thank you zaqrack! It works after changing the sound setting to PC speaker! I wouldn't come up with that in a million years... Thanks again!

DOSBOX 0.74 is the best solution so far but this post was 10 years old! :o

Felt like providing a couple coments DOS-on-XP emulation...  First of all, I'd advise people to avoid VDMSound altoegether. I used it to play under XP since I can remember, and only tried DOSBox around yesterday (for attempting NoRH-SDR). I never considered any performance issues for never having tried anything else. My initial runs unde DOSBox, however, induced me to some testing - I compared Stunts replay clock to my pulse watch results. Thing is, on my Athlon XP 2000+ with 256MB RAM, DOSBox runs on realtime and with reasonable CPU usage (setup at 12000 cycles), whereas VDM was about 9% slower! I feel cheated now... at least now its possible to race ZakStunts (non-Indy) properly! And BTW, if any newbie chooses to try DOSBox, get (from the official site) the D.O.G forntend (or anything similar). It makes the configuration process trivial...

Five years...  ::)
