Hey guys,
I am a big fan of DOSBOX and D-Fend Reloaded as I grew up in the 90's and it's amazing for me to play all the old games that I used to know from my youth. Most of the DOSBOX are running perfect (e.g. Wing Commander 2, Doom, Commander Keen, Wacky Wheels) and I don't run into any problems.
Though running Windows games which are designed for Windows 3.11, Windows 95 or 98 are a real pain. Most of them crash, display wrong or simply do not start at all on a Windows 7 machine (no matter if it is 32-bit or 64.bit).
Several times now I read solutions like VirtualPC, ReactOS or VMWare.
What I'd like to know now is, if there is a clever way to directly start these old Windows games over the D-Fend Reloaded frontend? Is there way to set up these virtual machines in such a simple way that in the end, I only have to double click my entry in D-Fend Reloaded and the game launches? And even keeping them portable? (I often play these games in my break between work, so having portable packages is really useful)
Thanks already,
best regards
