What is XP ? Can you get that legally for free ?
I don't have it. And i don't intend to spend more than 100 dollars on something that only controls my hardware. (and takes a lot of resources for doing such a task.)

Therefore I'm glad to know if the game would work in DOSBox.

All I'm sayin' is that it DOES work on any Windows, just with the compatibility option turned on. To load a game on Dosbox - you just waste a perfect two minutes, with compatibility mode on - a second.

You would not believe how much effort we put in making M.A.X. run on our computers a few years ago! I hadn't heard of DOSBox by then. All I can tell you is that we didn't succeed in making the game work. Although I might be wrong, there could be a patch circulating somewhere. I think we even tried virtual computers.

Well if M.A.X.2 works for me, M.A.X.1 would surely do too. :blink:

I'm going to install Win98 on my modern PC... I guess that will help out with a lot of compatibility problems.
