King's Quest 6 Versions (2018-02-18 01:11) Jay
Three versions:

CD Windows: Enhanced character portraits, enhanced menus and items, options for text, speech or both. Use ScummVM to run this version. You may want to choose "use windows cursor" and "use original save game menu" options from ScummVM setup.

CD DOS: Less detailed character portraits, menus and items. Options for text or speech. But not both. Use DOSBox. Menus are brown colors.

Floppy Disk DOS: Less detailed character portraits, menus and items. Only text option. Use DOSBox. Menus are yellow colors.
Faces? (2015-07-22 20:39) KaizokuShojo
I installed and am only getting the basic faces I remember seeing when I first played the game as a kid, not the hyper detailed portraits that I got when playing on my old Windows 95. I don't remember what I have to do to get the better portraits. Help!
Couldn't install video driver (2009-06-25 20:36) allie
I got everything mounted fine, but then I when I tried to run "Sierra" it returned with "couldn't install video driver" Any solutions?
KQ6 Intro (2007-09-22 19:12) lazerith_444
The introduction files aren't corrupt, the video driver is simply faulty. The Intro was jumpy even on 486's in real DOS. Sierra fixed the video driver for the Gabriel Knight Demo, but in typical Sierra fashion, didn't bother including this newer driver with the KQ6 CD. Download the GK1DEMO, and copy VGA320.DRV into your KQ6 directory. This fixes both the floppy & CD versions of the game. As far as the Thunderboard problem, try downloading the newer Sound Blaster 16 compatible driver. I think it can be found at Quest Studios.
Almost perfect... (2006-03-11 02:17) Criftus
Other than the introductory video seemingly being corrupt (?), the game runs flawlessly. No other discernible problems. [DOSBox 0.63]
I still can't get voice... (2006-01-31 21:41) DragonDai
I set my game's install to the thunderboard option above and I installed the large version and I have the cd in the same drive as I installed from it. What am I doing wrong??? I really want the voice, cause the dialog and voice acting was amazing. HELP!!!

Thanks in Advance!

how do you get the cd to work with the dosbox i can't figure it out
KQ6CD works fine on Dosbox v0.63 (2005-07-26 13:47) Fakk2
After setting it up the way everyone described with the Thunderboard for voices, King's Quest VI CD worked perfectly for me using Dosbox v0.63 (supposedly broken) and I turned down the cycles to help out the video from stuttering. :)
Stuttering Sound Fixed (2005-04-26 00:45) Stocks
changing the Sample Rate to 44100 fixed the stuttering sound for me.
works perfectly (2004-07-11 22:25) mattf
No problem at all in 0.61
more than 1 save game (2004-07-11 22:24) mattf
In dosbox 0.61, I can have more than 1 savegame. And yes, for the speech, we have to use "thunderboard" instead of soundblaster.
And... (2003-10-21 22:51) ClapBedon
..I forgot to say that you can only have 1 savegame.
Voices work fine (2003-10-21 22:48) ClapBedon
...If you select Thunderbird instead of soudblaster
Note: (2003-10-19 19:18) Exodus-Zandex
You should select No Audio/Voice Card through the installation program. The voices are nothing but static.
