    Play your old Dos games on XP, NT, or 2k again

    Here's a dos emulator. Which enables you to play your old Dos games on these new systems.

    Also read the Readme and follow the steps before using this gem.

    It worked for my Prince of Persia 1 and 2.
    I see two young birds flying in the sky
    Flapping their wings as they fly
    Spreading their love throughout the sky
    I see a young lonely bird flying in the sky
    Silently crying to himself as he flies
    Hoping that he’ll find his love before he dies - Zapages

    That's great - I've been looking for something to run my older games (some of which XP now decides I cannot run as I don't have enough memory - thank god it's informed me that I need to increase my excess of 20GB to play these old games... the memory requirements for ancient VGs these days.. tut )...

    Now to see if I can run them in DOS....

    Hopefully this'll let me play Might and Magic 4 & 5 again...

    Odd that M&M 1 & 2 work fine, yet 4 & 5 won't work...

    I'm just glad that the Bard's Tale games work great with XP...

    Has anybody tried it on Wing Commander Privateer?

    I tired to get the game to work, but it keeps on crashing in Windows.
