:?: Hello everyone. I'm trying to run the game Heat Wave:Offshore Superboat Racing on my WinXP computer.Not with any success I might add. I'm running the game in dosbox.It appears the game tries to load and I see the beginning graphics and hear sound but then the game screen stops and freezes.I would appreciate any and all help with this issue.

dunno, it seems work at my place (heatwave.exe)
the only problem is that I don't know the security codes so all menu items are unavailable.

When the game Heat Wave:Offshore Superboat Racing attempts to start up,the game freezes and asks me to look in certain files for example,supercharge,and then look in state (Maine) and then in either bilge pump,loran,compass etc.and asks what numbers I see there.I'm supposed to enter this four digit number and then I think the game might run. I hope someone has played the game and knows exactly what i'm talking about.Thanks for your help and support.
