The problem is that many of the newbies never heard of DOS in the first place.

It's like with GOD - it only speaks to a handful of chosen people. :laugh:

The difference is that with GOD it takes faith and with DOS it takes logic.
Both also demand some devotion from the subject.

...I am using DosBox from 4 years.
It is a best program to run old games even on Windows 7.
Reliable and simple..

I am not specialist as above well respected AB leaders but think that monitors size is not factor for problems with DosBox.

Also, DOS is pretty indifferent towards prayer Now actually reading up stuff and trying it according to manual usually does the trick.. I wish GOD would work that way

that's right people, internet forums are not a place to enjoy yourself but serious business where you can be only ontopic and don't even think about making a few jokes, otherwise eagle of fire will ban you

I thought the topic was about if you can handle DOS like you handle GOD? *reads thread title* Yes, DOSBox is unable to display games (what it should do), and now he wanted to know if he can do the same thing as when GOD doesn't display signs and miracles (what it should do). The former is a monitor/resolution issue, the latter a monism/revelation issue.

Me, and my sense of humour, are not amused.
