I'm trying to play the game prince of persia 2. But somewhere around the 3rd of 2nd stage(very early in the game), the game starts to lag big time. and after that, it escapes and an error message pops up saying:
" 16 bit MS-DOS Subsystem
VDMSound 2.0.4 - DOS Prompt
The NTVDM CPU has encountered an illegal instruction.
CS: blah blah blah(varies from time to time) Choose 'close' to terminate the application."

I've tried all the troubleshoot available but it only made matters worse. The error message pops up now even in the 1st stage.
I'm using the VDMS to run the game. And my OS is Win XP
HELP ANYONE OUT THERE!!! Crying

Its a bug in the Demo. Theres nothing you can possibly do except obtain the full game from illegal sources.

I'm not sure how well the pp2 demo works in DOSBox, but it's probably worth a try:

I'm really sure mine is the full version of prince of persia 2.
Doxbox can't work either.
