Can you give 'old' a time frame? Did you use DOS, Windows 1x/2x/3x/9x or later on the PC?
Type of game would be a 2D graphics adventure I assume, since you mentioned Disney animation style?

Abuse (DOS game) - Level 17
I've not played the game, but there are some playthrough videos on youtube, you might find a solution there.

I've not used the specific brand 'sharpie', so I can't suggest other than googling for proper removal methods; However the 5 1/4 inch floppies are sensitive to handle, and I would not recommend rubbing hard on them, like in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDlNc7-pTvk https://www.hunker.c...

I remember MDK/MDK2 had something like this. Far off enemies sometimes could pop up & wave to you or tease you.

Old 90's educational PC game perhaps called "Factory"
If noone remembers, it could have been a locally produced game, only used where you went to school, perhaps?

Old logic text only game name Marooned
The one game I remember playing that had remote controlled droids to play the game is Infocom's Suspended, but that was entirely taking part inside a enivironmental control station, not in spacehips as such involved. They had other i-f games on spaceships, but not with the 'Marooned' name. The 'Maro...

Tongue of the Fatman is freezing - Running on real dos 5.0 old pc (not emulation)
Since the game works in Windows, examine the settings used by the soundblaster in that environment; it is possible the DOS variables BLASTER or MIDI settings could be wrong - e.g. not matching how the card is actually configured; note that the FATMAN game should also have these same settings somewhe...

The BUFFERS=15,0 and EMM386 d=32 are two separate items; they are similar looking but are applied to different things. BUFFERS determine the number of read-ahead disk sectors e.g. from the harddisk. However what I see in online docs, the DOS 5 version of Buffers should use 15,1 when you only have 51...

Tongue of the Fatman is freezing - Running on real dos 5.0 old pc (not emulation)
The windows buffers refers to what windows needs; but I did not see any error referring to the buffers in DOS, you only mentioned a freezing, so it may be a different problem altogether. The default EMM386 buffer size in DOS I think is either 16 or 32, so any change should be an increase if it is to...

I think the DMABUFFERSIZE parameter is applicable for Win3.x configuration only; I don't see it mentioned for the DOS5.0 version of EMM386.exe as a parameter. looking up some more webpages; this was long ago: ok - for DOS EMM386 the parameter should be D=<some buffer size>; e.g. 64 https://www.cubic...

Ok, if the guy you got the PC from had the SB16 installed with these programs for you, then I guess it matches the hardware inside the PC. (To know the model, you would have to open the PC to read the card model on the SB16, which is not required, if it works ok.) The thing I was after was to verify...

So, how does your free memory look when you are booted up? Maybe only run one of the mixers, if you load them as TSR:s. Not sure what the sb16 diagnostic program does, if it is indeed needed here? Test with different sound setups, no sound etc to pinpoint the issue. For the SB16, is it a software (p...

Not GW related, but I just wonder if/why you need to run the sb16 diagnose and mixerset programs twice? (loading both low and high). I don't know anything about the GameWizard setup as I've never used it, but there was a thread on Vogons forum (many years old now) involving another game, maybe someo...
