that depends on your system specs. i have an amd duron 857mhz processor with 384mb of ram and 30gb hd and i tried running games in dosbox and VMware and i have had no problems with speed in vmware (i did in dosbox though) and i'll try out MS-DOS 7.10, thanks for the link
******QuoteBegin-Data i don't bother with dosbox now. i got vmware and i installed freedos on one of the virtual machines with a cd-rom driver. runs dos games far better than dosbox ever will [/quote]
right as if the vmware people care about dos. [/b][/quote]
they intended for it to run most operating systems (dos included) they didn't intend for it to run freedos but it still works well on there so im happy

I got VirtualPC, but it is too slow. :blink: Is vmware any faster?

I used to set couple lines in config file. (mostly to mount a folder as C drive, then cd to that folder, mount a cd rom drive and finaly clear the screen, but after I got D-Fend I stoped to do that as each game got it's file created automaticly at the time I am adding a game to the program. k:
Here are the lines I used to add to bottom of config file (belove this line: '# Lines in this section will be run at startup.':
mount C "C:\DOS\CDrive"
mount D "E:\" -t cdrom -usecd 0 -ioctl
C:

Just look for the following line in dosbox.conf:
[autoexec]
# Lines in this section will be run at startup.
and add the commands there you want to be executed at start.

Gratitude for pointing that out.
Didnīt know it was possible.
