Re: No CD Audio in v15
You need to change the mixer values on DOS or on the emulated Windows, not on your host Windows system. When I implemented the new mixers for the soundblasters, I followed the programming guide that suggested that the default for the CD audio was silence (which in this context means -60dBs, so not c...

Re: [BUG] International keyboard layouts
I can only confirm your findings (at least about ami 386 and xi8088)
It's clear that the keyboard emulation that was added on that commit that we identified, is making these systems use an incorrect key mapping.

Re: [Feb 2018 ed.] PCem MSYS2 build guide (with wxWidgets)
Official pcem is not compiled with MSYS2. it is compiled with the other mingw and not using the exact same versions of the dependencies.
You need to use the dlls that are in msys2.

Since you use MSYS2, you should be building it like this (as a clean install): make clean autoreconf -i ./configure --enable-networking --enable-release-build make -j cp src/pcem.exe dist (That last "cp" line is because I've created a dist subfolder where I have all the .dlls and roms so I...

Re: Video BIOS messages not showing up on startup before BIOS POST screen
With the released version of v14, AMI winbios and Trident TVGA, I see the trident message during two seconds, so it seems there's something more in your setup that could be causing this misbehaviour. (video speed is set to default)

Re: PCem crashes when running AWEUTIL /EM
Mmm. I am currently testing this and, while it does report an error ( ERR014: Feedback path error), it does not crash.
I haven't worked on the emulation for some time, so I cannot say if I could fix it, but I might look at what it does to report that error.
My version is AWEUTIL 1.32

Re: Ctrl-Alt-PageDown not working
I don't think I fully understand your problem with the keyboard keys.
But if you have, the problem that you report on v12 only happens with Direct3D. Switch to OpenGL and you'll no longer have that problem

Re: PCem v14 not honoring default audio device in Windows 10
PCEm does honor the default device, but only at startup time. Currently it does not react to changing the default output. I haven't looked into this, but I am assuming that it's because of the kind of audio API that it uses. I might have a look someday how easy or complicate it would be to use porta...

Re: "Disk I/O Error" when switching machines
What might happen is that either the bock size configuration when adding the disk to PCem, or the BIOS detected parameters do not match with those used when the disk was created.
Please, check the values in the PCem disk setup from the working machine and replicate those to the other machines.
