Hi everyone 😀 I know this is a really basic question (or series of them), but I'm not sure how to install a Windows 95 game on a Vista system. I tried doing it the normal way but it told me it was unable to install a 16 bit file. I read in a few places that people were able to get Dosbox to install it for them, but they haven't answered my questions about how they made it work.
The problem is I have no earthly clue what I'm doing in Dosbox. I tried going to the FAQ and still couldn't figure it out. I have an image file I want to mount, and run it from there, but am not sure how to do that. Once I have it installed, I'm not sure if I'm supposed to run the game from within Dosbox or outside it.
Also just to let you all know I tried running all the compatibility checks for Vista one at a time and nothing worked.
If anyone could help me with this I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks so much!
