Street Fighter II DOS Trouble

PROBLEM SOLVED

Hello there. I would need help about the DOS version of Street Fighter 2. I have 2 problem

1. I can hear only sound and no music (even if i click on ''SF2'' located on the floppy disk drive).

2. When I click on ''Game Start'' the game is asking me something like this

'' Please enter word (random number) on page (random number) line (random number)''

I do not understand why it does this (The instruction manual is garbage)

I have the Original game, 3 1/2 Floppy Disk

Thanks in Advance

Can't help you with the sound issue but the '' Please enter word (random number) on page (random number) line (random number)'' message is an old anti-piracy measure. You need the instruction booklet to get passed that, just look up in the manual what the message is asking you and then type the answer in.

Are you using DOSBox? Because you probably should.

Thanks you so much todesengel, I can now play the game!

But I still have the Music issues. In the game option, I have put Soundblaster Card but I only have sound during fights, no music. I can also enable PC Speaker but the music and sound quality is slugglish

Are you using DOSBox? Because you probably should.

I am playing the game on a 2001 Intel Pentium 3 Computer with Windows 98 as the OS. Im able to play my other DOS game without issues (ChessMaster4000 Turbo edition made in 1994) but it is a CD Game

Street Fighter II is my only floppy game thought

Also note: The game take much less time to load than some video Ive seen about this game. I don'T know if it mean something important

The advantage to DOSBox is that at least there's a much smaller list of things that could need changing.

Can you get music in other DOS games? Perhaps SFII has some configuration utility you need to run?

Windows 98 is probably far enough removed from the DOS for which Street Fighter II was designed that it needs to be running on a system with 6.22 (and not 7.0). Even back then, I had problems getting Sound Blaster support in some games with Windows 7.0. IIRC, I was running SF2 Turbo Edition for DOS on a 6.22 system back in the day.

Jorpho is correct - you should be using DOSBox...unless you're going to go with a full-on 6.22 system. But who wants to fool around with MEMMAKER when you have DOSBox?
