Hello,

I have old DOS games and I want to play them on my Windows XP. I have tried some but many do not have the sound anymore. Can I switch to DOS mode on XP or vista? Thanks for your help!

Configuration: Windows XP
Firefox 3.0.1

I tried using Dosbox but it was very hard to configure.

I found a autorun self configuring dos emulator cd at www.pcandmacgames.com

It only required three double clicks to configure.

If you have trouble then you should check it out
