Tie Fighter - EMS problem
Hi, I´m trying to run TIE FIGHTER (the old DOS version) on windows XP. It actually works if i turn off the sound from the setmuse setup. But when i try running it with sound (i use VDM, and works fine with other games) it says i need more EMS memory and then drops back to the desktop.

I tried with the "memory" tab on the .EXE properties, and selected the highest value for each type of memory. Still the same message and the drop.
Any ideas on how to get it working?
