| Japo | You must unzip the games before you can play. |

I strongly advise you NOT to use 'program files'. Follow the manual and use C:\Oldgames Next: Unzip the games in C:\Oldgames\folder\ Use names shorter then 8 characters, no spaces. run dosbox mount c c:\oldgames c: cd folder dir Look for a *.exe or bat, whatever. Also I would advise you to specify your game, not a 'whole' bunch of them, cause then you can only get general advise. |

running games on Dosbox? HELP! Hi! Unfortunately I'm one of those people with a question that is probably not hard to answer. I'm gonna ask it anyway, since reading the forum didn't help a lot. :confused: I just downloaded a couple of DOS games, but some of them don't have sound (and I know they should have). So I downloaded Dosbox in the hope the games would perform better. The problem is: I have no idea how to launch the games! I followed the manual posted on this forum (by horse-rider) and have mounted to my C drive (program files to be exact, since that is where I placed the games). When I enter C:>DIR a list appears with a couple of zip.files, exe.files and I guess some main directories? (like: WINRAR So I guess my question is: What commands do I use to start the games? Thanks for your help! |
