| Honkers | I had the same problem on win98. Just download dosbox 0.60. That seemed to fix the problem (although dos box is really slow, but I think that's 'cause I have a junky hardware). |

Boot disks are read when you restart your computer. Simply having a boot disk (the floopy disk here) in your drive at startup should be enough and you'll boot in DOS. From there, you should be greeted to c:\ and you should be able to use commands just like in DOSBox. I can't really ganrantee you that you won't have to fiddle with the autoexec.bat and config.sys to configure your DOS tough. |

Well, the main problem here is that you got Win2k. Using a boot disk may allow you to be able to play old games fine. Dual booting in a DOS or Win98 environment could also solve your problem. |

| Hopkins | is there another way i can play the games without dosbox? I also have vdmsound but it wont work everytime i try to launch something with it it says "inactive" on the top blue bar. |

| Eagle of Fire | I fear that I can't really help you with that... Every computer is unique and I have no idea what could be wrong in this case. |
