Hello, I recently downloaded DOSbox, but before that I downloaded a game called Shadow President.

That was the first game downloaded from Abandonia, but I dont know how to run it. I've not played games from that far back on a computer before.

I need help using DOSbox to get the games to run. Thank you for the help in advance.

Games run on the DOS now. Thanks.

Also, is there a solution to this

-- Every time I get on for about 10 minutes on a game, the mouse and touchpad become unresponsive to it, making me have to alt-enter out of it.

Is it this problem that you have?

Q: My mouse doesn't work in DOSBox.
Ctrl+F10 Switch mouse control between Windows and DOSBox.
