Running Palasm on WinXP

I run PALASM 4 version 1.5 from the command line. No problem at all. The only things I added were to set the environment variable PALASM to the directory where Palasm resides and the path should include the directory of the exe. So

palasm=c:\\palasm path= %path%;c:\\palasm\\exe

Dear Byter: Tried your advice... did not work. Error message is "Copyright (c) 1990 Ergo Computing, Inc. os286: BIOS checksum does not match, please reconfigure". Any more ideas?

My version is from 1991. Apparently you've got a slightly older version which includes some kind of copy protection. FAIK a 1.5 version has been around on the net for quite some time but may be vanished. If you can't find it maybe I can help but I need a correct e-mail address and you must realise it's almost 4MB compressed. May address should be valid after removing the spamtrap.

I've tried 1.5 on Win 2000 and it won't compile or simulate. It just stops without any warning and the log file is not generated :o( I've tried it in DOSBox 0.63 but that doesn't work either. I've only gotten it to work on real DOS.

Try "bochs", It seems to pretend to be a PC-XT. I'm using DOS-5 on my copy. It doesn't seem to be able to detect anything unusual.
