Played rpg's for more years than I care to count, and in all this time managed to avoid DOS games. Desperately needed a Might and Magic fix, so I found a perfect, two cd ... World of Xeen. I have a new computer, but keep my old 450 to replay my great older games. It does boot up in DOS....I don't. I did try to install the game with the instructions in the (few page) manual, but, it may as well be written in Martian.

Not TOTALLY computer ignorant, but DOS has always eluded me.. I have searched forums and web sites for someone answering a "DOS FOR DUMMIES" type question, but no luck. I see something about DOS BOX, which confuses me even more.

I've heard that Xeen can be played using XP, if you tweak something. Is this true..is it hard to do..is it worth the trouble or would learning how to run DOS games be the way to go. If I learn DOS, just think of all the great older games I could get and play. WHEEEEE

Please take pity on this "DOS DUMMY". Any advice, links, tutorials, whatever, will earn my undying gratitude. I'll name you in my will and leave you all my rpg's...for all systems waaaaay back to the Super NES.

Send a personal e mail if you wish...thanks
