playing old dos games
 

Anyone know a reliable way to play old DOS games without them running in
hyper speed?

I tried a program called MoSlo but it did not make any noticeable difference
to the speed of the game. I also tried DosBox from sourceforge.net, but the
game failed to run at all using this.

My system:
===========
Celeron 1.7Ghz
224 MB of RAM
Windows XP SP2

I've learned that no matter how much I care, some people are just assholes.

Turbo seems to work all right, but you could try some of the others.

Greetings Gentlemen!
I'm really interested in this post. I have an old dos game called Tank
Platoon by Microprose. Tried DosBox, but no joy. Does anyone have any
experience getting this game to run or possibly another sub-app to
try? Have an HP 2.6 computer with HT.
Regards,
Solar^
