Anyway, I have quite a few old games that I actually bought when they were new (yes, I'm old... :bleh: ). My husband has a Linux machine with a 3.5 disk drive and most of the games have 3.5 disks (I do have some with 5.25, but I am not going to even try to find a drive for them right now).

Last night we were trying to see about playing these old games using DosBox for Linux.

We can't seem to get it to work right.

I haven't used dosbox for linux as I only run windows at present , but what exactly did you do to try and install them and what happened? what errors did you get etc.

with windows it is pretty easy to install and run games most of the time but as linux uses a different file system and I have not used it much I might not be able to work out whats wrong but I will try
