I try the play Soccer Kid on DosBox(0.72)
But it gives an error massage:

Soccer kid cannot run with an EMM driver
Please remove EMM driver from config.sys

What should i do?

Seems like the game is complaining about EMS... Hmm, how about editing that DOSBOX.CONF file of yours and setting ems=false? Does that do the trick?

Well then try xms=false as well. If it still doesn't work, type "mem" before
starting the game and post a screenshot of the output.

Well your ems=false technique failed. Be sure you changed it in the
default dosbox.conf, saved that file, then re-try it AND post the contents
of this file here.

Erm i meant the contents of the dosbox.conf you edited.

In the meanwhile, you can try typing "ems false", then starting the game.

If you don't wanna type that every time you start the game, you have to
check which dosbox.conf is loaded (usually the one in the installation directory
of dosbox, where dosbox.exe resides as well) and change the (already present!)
entry ems=true to ems=false.
