Before you start the 98 VM, highlight it and press Settings - did you add it as a second Hard Drive?
Ok, I did this, Now I started the Win 98 VM, Checked in the Win 98 My Computer, and sure enough, the MS-Dos 6 .vhd is seen by the Win 98 guest as Drive D:, while the CD-Rom drive is seen as Drive E:
So now how exactly do I copy and paste this univbe folder onto drive D: - just select it (its sitting on Win 98 desktop) choose Copy, Click on Drive D: with the mouse, and when Drive D: opens up, choose Paste? .....Ok, I just did this, now I'm going to close the W98VM, detach the MS DOS .vhd, and do a cut and paste it back into my MS DOS 6.22 VM folder, etc - correct?
Well, I just answered my own questions - I'm now running the MS DOS VM now, did a C:\dir /p <enter>
and yep, that Univbe directory is there, all right, in the root driectory of the DOS C:\ drive, ok, now, am checking inside of the Univbe directory, there's 2 files - a Univbe.doc and a Univbe.exe. What am I supposed to do at this point? And what exactly is this "Univbe" file, and what is it for, what does it do (curious)?
Ok, I loaded the Univbe driver into my autoexec.bat, rebooted the VM, now it tells me that the Univbe is a VESA videio BIOS extenstion and I think it's for installing a S3 SuperVGA (kind of like getting a SVGA color monitor for your PC in the old days of MS DOS 6) onto your DOS VM, right?
EDIT - just tried the game in the drive now, and I get a message that says "could not read CD. Please clean and try again." Yet the CD and the CD drive worked OK before.
EDIT 2 Ok, I fixed it. The VCD drive had the VM Additions iso in it, which isd why it wasn't reading the game disc. Game is now at the menus - Start Game, Load Game, Intro, etc.
Just wanted to tell ya game menu no longer bounces, now it stays still like it's supposed to. and the Sun's cornea is showing up nicely in the menu. Also just noticed (for first time since having it about 11 months so far) that my Acer laptop does have a numberpad added to the keyboard as this game requires that commands be issued from the numberpad.
