Hi!

I come to bring an answer, not a question! Great, no?

I installed DosBox as you mentionned it on this excellent site, following the perfect tutorial. It actually works and i could feel again the pleasure to type "dir" or "cd .."

BUT

When i came back again, Windows threw on my head and my surprised eyes :blink: :
"DosBox is not a valid Win32 application" !!!!! :ranting:
How could it be, since it works?
If you re-install DosBox, it works again but not for a long time.

"Flodelarab! Flodelarab! Please, Give us the solution! Don't let us in the dark "

ok ok

1. Copy the dosbox.exe in c:\dos just after the installation
2. Rename it. Call it dosboxsav.dat (The extension is not the same, it is not fortune)
3. Create a new textfile
4. Copy this text in the text file:

copy /V c:\dos\dosboxsav.dat c:\dos\DOSBox-0.63\dosbox.exe
dosbox.lnk

5. Save the file
6. Rename the textfile. Call it RestoreBox.bat
7. That's all

If your usual link doesn't work, Double click restorebox.bat.
I must add that the link to dosbox is in the c:\dos directory.

Enjoy the Abandonware World! :bye:
