This was a great tool to hack DOS games.
What I was using it mostly was: speeding up games (it messed with timers or something)? Anyway, it does not even start and crashes right away every time it is started...
If You can't get it working, is there any way to replicate the speedup/speeddown funtionality? I am aware of the CPU control You already have in DosBox, but it's not the same thing -> try to speed up Settlers 1 (Serf City), You will see what I mean...
Thank You!

    gw32pro works fine, just be sure you install
    it WITHIN dosbox.

    Could You please add the version number of the one your are using?
    I have GW 3.0 Pro (registered).
    Thank you!

    gw32pro 3.0a registered
    Installed from a:\, configured with fast video swap
    (slow is not supposed to work under dosbox).

    So did you INSTALL game wizard within dosbox
    and it still crashes??

    I don't have a version that can be installed.
    I have a version that was installed already but it has been RARed.
    If You say it works, I believe You, so feel free to close this.
    Thank You.

    During the installation a checksum of the (graphics) ROM
    is written into the gw executable, and checked when it
    is run. Thus you can't move the executable arbitrarily
    around, you got to re-install it. Not a bug of dosbox.
