I've just recently being to download DosBox for Windows using the OptusNet Mirror (AU) but the page had apparently been removed or unavailible, so I was wondering if there's an alternate way to get it! I'm dying for space quest!!!

Head over to their sourceforge page and download from another mirror (personally, I always go with HEANet, 'cos we Irish are great)

Try: http://heanet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourcefor...2-installer.exe




Edit: For some reason, clicking this link doesn't work - just right-click on it -> Copy Link Location -> Paste into address bar (And you'll be sorted)

If you really*can't manage to download DOSBox 0.63 then PM me and we'll see if we can work something out.

Edit: I'm not 100% sure but I think the link on Abadonnia is only another link to the true download page...

Thanks guys, and god bless the irish, but the tragedy doesn't end here!
I successfully installed DosBox and followed the DOsBox tutorial, but after configuring the program saving it then running it, instead of a C:\> at the top of the screen I've got a Z:\> Any thoughts guys?

Well, very quickly; just type "info" or "help" and that should get you started.

Beyond that, read the DOSbox FAQ on the site.

Newbie Guide to DOSBox.

Ask if you have any more advanced questions.
