That is correct for XP, I've run dozens of games with that method without a problem and get happy responses from visitors all the time who got their game working after following my steps correctly. I don't run Vista so thanks for letting me know the file system and access is different. Most people still use XP however so that must be why most don't have a problem.

Of course it works, for one single game.
I have about approx 120 dosgames on my HD for the moment, -(yeah yeah must clean up, I know ...nag nag nag...)-, your system won't work.
As soon as you install more than one game you're screwed I'm affraid.
And I think you can safely assume that most dosgames lovers have more than one game installed.....
But for one single game, yes, indeed, it works fine.

How do you figure that, each game is in a separate folder with its own copy of dosbox within that folder.

I changed the header to XP only. I think I might pick up a Mac Mini and run Vista and OS X together with boot camp that way I can write variation of those guides for those OS's
