Default I can't get SimFarm to come up.

I've had a few problems.
I'm running Windows Vista.
I've already changed the driver I'm using.

Current problem is, when I go to open SimFarm, my screen goes black like it's about to load, but it doesn't do anything.
There isn't an error message.
It's like it won't load.
Any suggestions?

As you're on Vista be sure to read:
Dosbox 0.73 and Vista [Basic howto]

I don't have a DOS box... is it 100% necessary?
I ran "Wolf" on my desktop without it, with minimal difficulties...
But SimFarm wouldn't load.

Haha. Wow.
Just realized I had to install dosbox.
Not buy a DOS box.

Ok, so I did that... still won't run.

Next step when you ask for help:
Provide info.

What did you do with the game archive?
What are your dosbox mount lines?
What did you try till now to run the game? (Inputs in dosbox ...)

Then we can see what went wrong, and at least we would know what kind of help you need.

The usual 'IT' doesn't work won't work here.
