No, bad idea. Your computer is far too slow to manage to run DOSBox efficiently, especially with those two games. Beside, you probably don't have XP installed either.

More information about your computer spec and your system would be in order here for us to make a proper decision. Info on how you tryied to make them run on your computer already may also prove valuable.

Assuming you have Windows 95/98, with your old computer (just like mine - PII 266 MHz ) you should not use DOSBox. I have the games and I run them in MS-DOS.

Step-by-step tutorial of making them run in DOS:

1.Create a shortcut to REGRET.exe or CRUSADER.exe
2.Right click on the shortcut and select Properties
3.Select the Program tab
4.Click on Advanced
5.Select MS-DOS mode
6.Click OK
7.Click OK
8.Double-click on the shortcut and click OK again

Thanks all.
At last I was able to run those games in Dos mode.
You are all great.
