DOS emulator lets you play old games, progams.

Posted by Admin

If you're a retro kind of guy or gal, you've likely been frustrated by your inability to play old DOS-based games. DOS is long gone from Windows -- the command prompt inside Windows isn't truly DOS anymore. Many old games simply won't run from the Windows command prompt. They need true blue DOS.

You can't buy DOS any more, but you can get the free DOSBox, which does a great job of emulating it. Install and run the program, then run any DOS game -- or DOS application, for that matter -- inside it. When you run DOSBox, it automatically sets any sound-system related variables, so that your sound system will work properly with your old games.
