I should know by now not to listen to random yahoo's on the internet but you know how it is sometimes they can really stimulate your paranoia!
So I was wondering if anyone has played all the way through Arena using dosbox and if so if they had found the game crashed quite a lot and maybe you could offer me some advice to try and minimise that? I have wondered if the crashes that people are referring to were because they were trying to run it on the hardware they had back in the day and the relative super computing of a modern computer may help to alleviate this. Or maybe there's some super secret commands (aka commands I'm ignorant of) that you can put into dosbox to make the game run better?
Many thanks!

Hi,
I played the games Arena and Daggerfall before 4 years.
These nice RPG were very stable and i had no any problem, even my PC
configuration was not brilliant.
Secret commands?
No idea and not used.
..I played all 5 games of Bethesda Games.
For me Arena is the best,
Skyrim is the worst
(no mod used with Skyrim even my friend Capo adviced me).
Mate,
do Your best to run Arena, believe me.
Do not give up!
