Unfortunately, some games require the Windows environment. Dosbox is a program that emulates the old DOS environment to run old 16 bit DOS-based programs such as video games. When it comes to old 16 bit video games, some of the more knowledgeable people would suggest using Dosbox. It is being republished here for the purpose of updating the guide with any new information I can obtain so that some of the more difficult to play games can be run. Important Notice: This guide was originally published by me on ZeroPaid. This guide will show you the basics of running a basic 16 bit Windows program. While a standard 16 bit DOS program may be kind of easy to run with DOSBox, a 16 Bit Windows program may be a little more tricky to actually run. If you ever found yourself having the urge to play a really old video game or application, and all you have is something like windows 7 or Windows 8, you may run into some problems attempting to get that particular program to work.
