![]() Yes, use DOSBox. Should fix most if not all of your problems.

![]() Oh, ****, another one of THEM.

DosBox (the emulator to which I link in my siggy) is a superb freeware program that emulates actually entire x86 PC, not just its OS. And therefore it is perfect for running old games. Oh, and by the way, get v061, not v063 - I found out that some old games had graphic issues with the newer DosBox versions. Actually, get both. That way you have both the new, supposedly better, one and the older, more reliable. |

![]() I advise you to look here first if you don't know the difference between DOSBox the program and the DOS box of Windows.
