Need help installing old school PC games

[Fatal Rose]

These old school installation methods are driving me crazy. Can someone please help me?

Witch one do I pick?

after that i'll take another print screen so you guys can help me with the next step.

Try the soundblaster option. If you have trouble playing the game after its installed, try using the dos emulator, i think its called doswin or something.

[Fatal Rose]

Ok thanks man, I did not even think about using a dos emulator.

Dosbox, google, perfect for old dos games.

[Agozer]

As old games run very poorly on newer systems, DOSBox is an absolute requirement. Fatal, just remember to read the docs carefully.

DosBox is kinda hard to use. Anyone with skills in dosbox hit me up in AIM.

If you insist.

If i remember correctly, don't you just have to drag the game folder into the dosbox.exe, then type the gamename.exe you want to run.

Yes, I think it works like that too, for the DOS illiterates. I like to teach it the oldschool way.

Agozer likes his dos games and his emulation old school.
