To be able to play STARS! in such a situation, you need to use either: - DOSBox along with a copy of Win 3.11 (you can find a pre-made DOSBox/Win3.11 version here (download DOSBoxStars.rar 4.92MB))
- Realise that 64bits OSes are incompatible with old games, and are thus useless (
 )
- Use en emulator other than DOSBox to be able to get the compatibility you need via another system (anything up to XP works way past fine).
- Partition your HD with another kind of OS simply to play old games.

Ok, I downloaded Dosboxstars.rar; now what?
