![]() When looking at game descriptions under the compatability section if it has two links for say the DOSBox and the Boot Disk does that mean that I have to have both of them or just one? I am asking because I noticed that on the boot disk page it said this will not work with NTFS partitions. so does that mean that I can't play dos games or what? Anything you could tell me about this would be helpfull
Thanks |

![]() The DOSBox flag mean that the game been tested in DOSBox succesfully. The XP flag mean that the game been tested in XP successfully. For the boot disk, I don't think it limit you to use the program only in DOS. It's only a gateway to take you to the default boot disk which would hopefully help you if you were to try to make the game run on a pure DOS machine.
Win98SE should be able to run 90% of all games (if you take for granted it's not made for a newer version of Windows) and XP should be able to run most games if you use VDMSound. |

![]() Would that mean the issues I'm having with Blood in XP would be solved if I simply opened with VDM Sound? cool

![]() Probably. There is a lot of trial and errors involved in this, so try it and it will be for the better if it works.
