Also,
I'm going to figure out how to make a Shortcut so all you have to do is double click a "Carmageddon" Icon and it will start up. I saw that you can do that here: http://www.dosbox.com/wiki/DOSBoxShortcuts
But I've only had and messed around with DOSBox for about 8 hours now, so I'm kinda new to all this 😁
