- Hi,
-
- as far as I remember, Ultima Underworld was told us not to run in a DOS Session
- because of a special 32Bit memory manager that was written for UW only.
-
- This is not true. UW takes just EMS and runs fine, fast and reliable. You may
- not be able to switch between UW fullscreen and OS/2 WPS without loosing UW
- (crashes if you move the next time because of vga problems I guess), and my
- modem hangs up randomly while I play uw (while I tried to reach my favorite
- BBS), but if you play uw, you don't have to boot DOS.
-
- Try this with windows NT!
