CD and Screen problems on XP

Post by sshrugg »

I'm running XP Pro Service Pack 1. Got basilisk up and running, but I'm having two problems.

1.) When I alt-enter, nothing happens. I can't go full screen.
2.) When I put in Mac CD roms (old games like Chaos Continuum and Alone in the Dark) it says that the volume is not formatted and needs to be initialized.

Does anybody know what to do?

I figured it out.

the new basilisk build for windows (using sdl) doesn't support full screen mode yet. I'm using 0.9 now. Nice.

CDs work fine as long as they're in the computer before you start up the emulator. They must be in before.

Now I just need to slow my computer the crap down so I can play diamonds. *grin*

I'm just replying to this a lot in case anybody out there has had similar problems, but they're really all dumb and self inflicted.

After updating my mac OS, CD's are working great. I have no idea what was wrong with my system, but it wasn't the emulator.
