>>I'm having a problem w/ Wing Commander I hanging during game play >>under OS/2 (March beta). The action simply freezes and the machine >>is dead; a reset is needed at this point. >>Any ideas? Anyone else having a similar problem with WC? Well I've tried a few things. Turn off retrace emulation. Play with the memory settings (increase to full). One of the things that I've tried with WCII that seems to work is starting an OS/2 fullscreen session, go to the WC directory, and then run the program.
