I downloaded DOSbox and it works fine. I downloaded Dapplegrey but I cannot get it to work properly. Whenever I start it up it asks for the path to the DOSbox application. Everytime I point it to the right program a message pops up saying "This appears not to be DOSbox!" I have tried using version 0.66 and the newest 0.72 but I still get the same message. No matter where I put the DOSbox app, I get the same error. I even deleted the plist file for Dapplegrey but still no go.

Can anyone help?

Try using v 0.71 of DOSBox and redownloading/reinstalling the frontend.

I tried that and it still doesn't work.

Meh, I'm sticking with SirDOSalot instead.

Thanks for the help.

What is Dapplegrey?

I'm not sure if I got this right, but from what I understand is that he is trying to fire up a program directly from Windows without going in DOSBox to configure what he would usually need to configure first (mount drives, look for setup for sound, etc).

No wonder why it doesn't work if it's the case.
