A problem running the old demos.
The original demos for pro pinball games are still out there but they don't run on Windows 10 x64. They used to work before I got windows 10.
Given that the full GOG versions run just fine, there must be a way to get the demos to work.
I tried messing around with DOSBOX but didn't get very far.
Whether DOSbox or Windows, I keep getting told about a CDROM initialization error. Adding a virtual CD didn't help. Seems odd for a demo to be asking this since it always was a download from the internet (or perhaps as a file on magazine disc).
Nothing yet, but if anyone has solved it that'd be nice.
