Can't do anything #3298

Open Carricx opened 2 years ago

Carricx commented 2 years ago

I open dosbox, and i'm reading the guide on how to use it. But there are no drop down menus at all, and i can only type Z, X, C and P 2022-02-24 08_13_19-DOSBox-X_ COMMAND .

None of the things at the bottom work when clicked on or anything either

You seem to be running in pc98 mode. Some more details as to what your doing could be helpful.

Are you running in fullscreen mode? Because then there is no menu bar.

Carricx commented 2 years ago

I can't get it to go windowed. And i'm just clicking on the exe to open it. I've done nothing else.

rderooy commented 2 years ago

well, at least we know one more tiny piece of information. Your running Windows.

Try to press F11-F to toggle between fullscreen and windowed mode. https://dosbox-x.com/wiki/Home#_dosbox_xs_special_keys

Can you please post your config file?

Carricx commented 2 years ago

I can't. Type isn't supported.

rderooy commented 2 years ago

Ok, I guess I'm done.

You don't supply any information as to your setup, leaving us almost completely in the dark. If you cannot even post your config file, then I have nothing else to add.

DOSBox-X does not start in PC-98 mode by default, nor does it automatically start in the upper left corner without menu bars. So you must have a custom config.

I haven't touched the damn thing
