I'm new to abandonware and my DOS skills are beyond rusty. What do I need to do to get the Space Quest games to work on my WindowsXP computer?

SQ 1 & 2 work when I click on the icon, but the fonts are unreadable (except for the highlighted option on the menus).

The rest all require installation and I don't know what options to select for video, sound, and directories. I have no experience with DOSBox and I'm guessing this will solve my problem, but I'm not sure how to run it properly.

Any suggestions?
