I'm positively aching to play Panzer General on my laptop...but everything I've tried failed.

Mostly, it errors out on startup with "Failed to load @:\lib\drv\VESA480.dll"

It runs on a Dell Latitude D610 (Intel Mobile 915GM video). It does not run on a recent Dell XPS. I wonder if this is because the XPS's video card only goes down to 800x600, not 640x480???

Here are some things I've tried:

- Dosbox. Still get the VESA480.DLL error

- downloading a VESA480.DLL from the net and sticking it in my System32. Still get the "failed to load" error...likewise, putting it in \lib\drv in various locations doesn't make a difference

- I have VMware Workstation 5 running on this laptop and I built a Windows 95 VM. Still get the VESA480.dll error! Even if I run the windows VM in "dos mode". Does seem to matter what video mode I use.

Any other ideas!?!?
