just try with q87 ... the same

edit : https://archive.org/details/sadt2_zip work

has someone 2.0.27 version (last g2) or 2.0.30 (before extended mode) to try ?

edit 2 : 2.0.27 work also (found at https://archive.org/details/adlib-tracker-ii-for-dos)

The problem with this program (and others) is that it uses CWSDPMI (and not DOS/4GW or DOS/32A DOS extenders) and will not work on ao486.

Later edit:
With QEMM and QDPMI loaded, it doesn't stuck, but throws an "Insufficient memory" error:

ryanvb from another thread said: "QEMM with QEMM's QDPMI.SYS loaded seems to do the trick. Thanks Spicer!". Maybe it's the version?

2.3.52 works for me, it does not use CWSDPMI.

*EDIT: One thing to note, so far I've only got it to load through Windows 3.11, due to DOS memory shenanigans.

Percussion mode is not supported? It's documented here
