One question, if I may... Why are you trying to run DOSBox on such a slow (by today's standards) machine? And, if you're using Win 98 SE, wouldn't it be better if you used REAL DOS? It seems pointless trying to run a DOS emulator (which requires much more CPU power) when you have the chance to try …

At that price?! :shocked: Damn right it's a bargain! And as everyone can see in that link, from the former owner himself : " Super League Rugby League - Retro Game (Very RARE!)

Thank you, Qbix!!! :happy: You just made my day! On a sidenote, other users reading this would probably think something like " Oh! He's just saying the game is great 'cause he liked it a few years ago...". It's much more than simple nostalgia... It's about a rugby game (a sport I usually hate, as …

I like your way of thinking DosFreak! 😎 Had the same doubt as Freddo, but the "conversion" you did probably runs like the ol' DOS game. Did you play it in DOSBox a little bit? How are the videos/sounds doing?

Hi KAN! About those DOX... I seem to remember those! Despite the unusual format, I believe you could open them with a regular text editor (notepad,wordpad,Word, etc.) with the probability to have some slight formatting issues, but they should still be viewable. If you still don't succeed, you could …

Your answer is most welcome, wildweasel! :cool: From what I've heard, I only had 2 thoughts : #1 - It was a different version from the one I have #2 - Maybe a "pirate" version where they added the audio tracks (as a normal audio CD) but with the game included in the same CD... I've seen so many …
