Ok thanks. However, I don't like being called a thief mate, you don't know me I am not a thief. Like I said I will gladly pay for any old game, and I asked the website and they said its all legit.

And Mr Stiletto, I didn't steal any games. Im not a thief. Just a question where do you guys get all your old games from. I doubt that everybody here has the original copies of all their original old school games with the original 8 and 5 1/2" disk drives somehow connected to new computers. I will …

Ok thats fine, thanks, I get it. I emailed the website that I got my games from and asked them if their games were illegal copies. They told me all of there software is 100% legal and they do not support or condone any type of piracy. Thank you for making me aware of this, now I will be more careful …

What about PC dos versions. Most of these old games like Secret Agent Sam, Where In The World Is Carmen Santiago ect were not released on any other platform. I thought thats what DOSBox was for! Playing old games? Feeling confused?

Illegally? Yes I did download them but I didn't think I was doing anything illegal! These games are so old that I didn't think you could buy them anymore. So if you tell me where I can buy legitimate copies of these old school games I will be more than happy to purchase them?

I just guessed and went loadfix -100 and it said you have more than enough memory dude. And then the game started! I don't know why but who cares! Thanks for the help! Next problem is Cali games 2 asking for a disk. Do you guys know how to solve that.

Ok thanks, my next question is. How do I have a quick start into my dosgames folder. So I don't have to type mount C ~ cd dosgames ect every time. It was easy with windows, you just go to options, but with mac it seems way harder. I can't get into the config file. It says in the help I pasted below. …
