it'll work as long as it isn't virtually mounted, or if it's an ISO (but then you won't get the cool cd tracks)

Dosbox won't solve problems of Win32 games. Think about that one for a while.

You won't get any reasonable performance running anything in DOSBox with a system less than at least 400MHz, and even that is going to likely be painful. So, no, an original Pentium won't do it for you. I beg to differ. I can play XT-era games and Roguelikes on it just fine. On a Pentium II …

old games weren't really designed for FSAA in mind particularily with 2D elements - for example geforce2 gts fsaa and everquest = raiders of the lost ark to your screen.

DOS Quake also has a nice -sspeed parameter, winquake/glquake and other ports have removed this though

maybe it's time to invest in a radeon instead then, it's not like they don't exist because they're not the hypy fastest.

I assume this is bethesda's release. Run wine on the .exe file first to install it. Then you can use DOSbox from there. Don't forget to review the copy protection codes document included when you try to exit the dungeon!

ATF and Jane's USNF at 1024x768 with all textures enabled is really nice Armored Fist II actually runs sluggishly on an actual coreDuo and is completely unplayable on any system that's not a dual core at this point. Big Red Racing at 640x480 is also nice.

I got around this by installing MS-DOS 6.22. Not really a solution. I have the CD Challenge Pack and it also does this. There's also more problems with its launcher in dosbox as well, so supplying a few dos com's won't totally solve it all
