You use DOSBox which can be found here. I reccomend you to read our DOSBox tutorial for guidelines on how to set it up.

Other than that, Ultima Underworld 2 is ESA protected and therefore cannot be downloaded from Abandonia.

EDIT: My bad, seems it's not ESA protected at all. Fully downloadable.

Hi thx for the help so far...

i couldnt get dosbox to work i followed the instructions but, dosbox opens in z:\ and wont change to c drive. i amended the file to mount the drive but wont do it for some reason... :(

also, any ideas on where to put the sound files? for U7 and si

Mounting a drive doesn't automatically change to it.
To change to any drive, enter it's letter followed by a colon (no space between both) - in this case, C:

sound files yeah, when i downloaded exult the are two sound files one for U7 and the other for SI. for sound s like opening doors and when you bring your charecter sheet up.

In that case, please post an exact copy of the mount command you added to the config file.

Those are for Exult only and useless for the original games.
Exult is unable to use the SFX as they are present in the game data, and thus needs these sound packages instead.
