OK... after pressed all the exe files I could find, I figured out how to get back to the menu to save or load game. Just click on the main exe file again. You can only choose an option when the skeleton hand turns into a pyramid. Whatever you do don't press ESC. It will end the game without the ability to save.
Saved games are located in the main folder in files like st7g.1 so in theory this game is portable.
So... I'd say DOS BOX isn't needed.
BTW... I didn't have to make any adjustments for sound drivers. It plays fine. And this was NOT one of the reworked games off eBay. I was using the old game files that still required a patch for Win95, Win98, and NT.
