Hi all,
I'm new to DOSBox, and found out about while reading an article and the forums over at Ars Technica (the interview with the creator of Scorched Earth). In any case, I've installed DOSBox 0.63 and D-Fend and tried running OMF2097. It runs, but horribly slow. I could tell immediately because the menu responsivness was horrible. I've tried playing around with the specs, and even turning off the sound, but no luck. It's interesting, actually, but the game ran at the same speed with the sound as it did without it.
My system specs are (taken from dxdiag):
