Hi there. As topic, i wanna play a full-screen DOS game in windowed mode, but i don't want to resort to DOSBox since i have a slow computer. Anyone knows how to do it? Thanks in advance~

In the order to help you, we need to know what OS do you have, and what games you trying to play.

Hit Alt-Enter. If it doesn't work then the game can't be played in a Windows window.

If you have windows 98, right click on game's .exe file and properties. Find somewhere 'play in', and instead of leaving 'Window', select 'Full Screen'. Maybe this can help! k:
