Default trouble running ultima7 in dosbox

so I'm running windows 7 on 64 bit pc. I followed all the instructions for instillation except for I couldn't manually enter numbers to change the resolution and I didn't see anything for me to change scaler=hq3x, hopefully that doesn't matter too much.

Now when I'm in dosbox and I type ultima7 in the c: it says "out of far memory program terminated by code.

when I try serpent in the d: I get an error message that says " serpent isle requires 1024000 bytes of extended memory! You only have 0 available."

I have no idea what I'm doing wrong, I hope someone can help me.

Default

Which instructions did you follow (link)? There seem to be two Ultima VII instalments, which game are you having trouble with? I take it's Part Two Serpent Isle?

I always recommend trying DOSBox with default settings, if you don't understand or have tracked the changes you've made. For this you can choose "reset options" under the DOSBox folder of the Windows start menu. I can't reproduce the error message you're getting.

In this case, if it's about Serpent Isle, you also need to disable EMS as explained earlier in the thread you originally posted in (I split this from there).
