<div>= Performance =<br />
<br />
'''Q.''' My game runs fine at first then an error message pops up on dosbox saying that the video file format is wrong. How or what can I do to fix this, if there is anything known?<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Q.''' My game/application runs slowly, how do I improve speed?<br />
<br />
'''A.''' Increase cycles. Use core=dynamic. Try different output modes (e.g. output=overlay). Increase Frameskip. Disable unneeded components in the [[dosbox.conf]] such as [[Sound]], mouse or joystick emulation. A nice speedup can be achieved by using a [[Other compilers|different compiler]] than GCC. If all else fails, find a faster computer to run DOSBox on.<br />
Also be sure to check the compatibility section of this FAQ as some game/applications are more trouble (or resource hogs) than others.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Q.''' The Sound/Music for my DOS game/application sounds terrible what can I do?<br />
<br />
'''A.''' This is a complicated issue covered in the [[Sound]] section of the wiki. It's important to remember to install or setup game/applications correctly to use the correct sound devices (<tt>INSTALL.EXE</tt>, <tt>SOUNDSET.EXE</tt> and <tt>SETUP.EXE</tt> are popular program names to look for). The capabilities of the hardware as well as the preferences of the programmer vary: Therefore what may sound "best" on one particular game may not be the "best" for another. Sometimes changes need to be made to the [[dosbox.conf]] file (or a new conf file) to get the best results.<br />
Also, game sound/music may have an impact on the speed at which the game/application runs and running DOSBox with limited resources may result in incomplete or 'choppy' sound being heard. (see previous question)<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Q.'''How do I change the memory size so that I can run programs that require more than the default settings (eg. Windows 1.01 or some other demanding OS)?<br />
<br />
<br />
= Usage =<br />
<br />
'''Q.''' Using Mac OS X 10.5.3 without a problem (MOO) and when upgraded to 10.5.4 MOO started flashing rainbow colors instead of the normal background in full screen mode (works fine in windowed mode.) I have a warning about the quickdraw capability being deprecated in my console window. Any suggestions?<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Q.''' My backslash key is mapped to ']' with DOSBox in Vista. Is there a workaround?<br />
<br />
'''A.''' Press <tt>CTRL-F1</tt> to enter the [[keymapper]] and select the backslash with your mouse. Press the <tt>DELETE</tt> button that will show up on your screen. Then press <tt>ADD</tt> to bind backslash to another key. Simply press an unused key to bind it to this. Press <tt>SAVE</tt> and then <tt>EXIT</tt> to return to the main screen.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Q.''' My cursor is trapped within the DOSBox window when I click inside. How do I get the cursor out?<br />
<br />
'''A.''' DOSBox will capture your mouse when you click inside the display window (and you have '''<tt>autolock=true</tt>''' set in the [[Dosbox.conf]]). Simply press '''<tt>CTRL-F10</tt>''' to release the mouse.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Q.''' I have set Gnome to load DOSBox when I click on .COM files. How do I script it to exit DOSBox when I quit from the game?<br />
<br />
'''A.''' with -exit as commandline parameter for DOSBox.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Q.''' How do I access my hard drive/cdrom in DOSBox?<br />
<br />
'''A.''' See the information on the [[MOUNT]] command, or type <tt>intro mount</tt> or <tt>intro cdrom</tt> in DOSBox for the basics.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Q.''' I have an ISO image I made of files for backup purposes. How do I access it in DOSBox?<br />
<br />
'''A.''' See the information on the [[IMGMOUNT]] command<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Q.''' How do I unmount or change images? I need to swap CD images in the drive.<br />
<br />
'''A.''' You don't "unmount", you may assign more than one image file to [[IMGMOUNT]], to swap images use <tt>CTRL-F4</tt>.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Q.''' I have created an image from a CD that includes CD audio tracks, when I access it in DOSBox only the first (data) track is available.<br />
<br />
'''A.''' Be sure to use the bin/cue format for mixed mode CDs (CDs with a data and audio tracks) and always pass the cue file to [[IMGMOUNT]].<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Q.''' When I write '':'' it turns out ''>'' or when i write ''å'' ''ä'' ''ö'' or any other non standard us character. How can I fix this for my keyboard?<br />
<br />
'''A.''' Use the [[KEYB]] command to change your [[Keyboard layout]].<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Q.''' I can't find the ":" symbol anywhere in my dosbox. I am using Vista on a laptop. Please advice me how to fix the problem.</div>81.234.194.133http://www.dosbox.com/wiki/index.php?title=Keyboard&diff=1252Keyboard2008-07-27T21:06:48Z<p>81.234.194.133: Redirect to what the searcher is probably looking for</p>
