Is there anything I can do??

Hello All!
I've been a Tex fan since the release of UAKM and just recently found my old copies of each game in the basement after a six year hiatus. After I had first played Overseer (and found out there was little chance of a new game) I packed them away and *almost* forgot about them.
Anyhow - with the help of this forum I managed to get Overseer up and running smoothly again and for that I want to thank you guys.
However, I can't seem to successully run Pandora, or UAKM regardless of having tried DosBox 0.62 with D-Fend, and then having tried running them from XP with VDMS sound.
Something seems to go wrong which ever way I try. Using the DosBox method, I am able to install both games, but I try to run them, I either get a black screen, or a sound device detection pop up appears and then the game locks up.
When trying to use the VDMS option from Nilo's place, following his tutorial verbatim, I can't seem to run the VDMS installer, as a pop up states that I don't have the necessary .ini file?
Any advice at all on these matters would be greatly appreciated!
