I recently got a copy of the Strategy Plus magazine which comes with a free CDROM of demos ($4.95 is a good deal for both/maybe it's normally more money -- call 1-800-283-3542, if you are interested). I also recently got a copy of the CDROM Today magazine with free CDROM disk. Both of these have demos that use a program called DOS4GW.exe. This program is used to run the Ravensloft, SimCity 2000, and Theme Park demos. Unfortunately, when I run the demos on either disk that use DOS4GW, I get the error message below. All other demos work fine. Does anyone know what this is all about? Forgive me for not including autoexec.bat and config.sys file and dma/interrupt list if those are important, but I thought I should conserve net bandwidth a little. Maybe it's something really trivial. Thanks in advance for your help.
