Re: No music in dosbox
Regarding my last post: I managed to create an ".iso" image that's only 115.1 MB in size (obviously, it contains only the data track from the original CD). Game's working like a charm now -- no music, but I don't miss the background noise at all!

Re: No music in dosbox
Managed to get it running with Ubuntu 12.04 + DOSBox + ".cue" from my original MW2 CD. Funny (actually annoying) thing: whenever I'm in combat, I hear this loud background white-noise. My guess is, due to a sort of bug somewhere (DOSBox?), the game "tries" to play track #1 (which...

Re: MW2 3DFX on Win7 x64?
My video card is the ATI mobility X-2300. Unfortunately, Catalyst Control Center (aka CCC) won't work with it (I've tried ATI Mobility Modder and everything). Mobility support was added to the latest version of Catalyst (10.3), but apparently my video card is too old -- thus not supported. :x Theref...

Re: MW2 3DFX on Win7 x64?
I couldn't find a way to force windowed mode. It would solve the "stretched screen" problem (I hate it when images get distorted). Is it possible? (I'm using Vista)

Re: dos box
I guess you guys are right, sorry for the lack of faith :) . I hadn't played MW2 in more than a decade (this is my excuse for missing the fact that there's no in-game music). I get music for example at the register sibko screen, but I guess that's midi -- not cda. Although the iso image is 716,744 K...

Re: dos box
The ISO format does not work, period, for any mixed-mode disk. <snip> I'm sorry to disagree, but I managed to make it work just fine with an ISO image, and I can tell you my original cd is mixed-mode. I posted the following text in another thread: Couldn't get CloneCD to work on my laptop (it froze...

Re: MW2 dosbox instalation method question
Couldn't get CloneCD to work on my laptop (it froze before detecting any SCSI/ATAPI devices). So here's what I did: 1. Downloaded the free version of Nero (Nero 9 Lite -- http://www.nero.com/enu/downloads-nero9-free.php); 2. Made a .NRG image of my MW2 DOS cd; 3. Used a free little software called N...
