DosBox 0.72 works quite well on Windows XP to run MicroCap II, which is a SPICE based electronic circuit simulator.

I set up in my computer a directory structure as follows:

c:
\mc2
\data ;contains user data files
\mc2 ;contains program files

To run, I start DosBox, then mount c -c:\mc2
followed by changing drive, directories:
c:
mc2
mc2.exe

...and there it is and it works. Without DosBox, MicroCap II 's somewhat primitive graphics interface would not function at all in a DOS window in XP; screen was garbled. DosBox lets me re-live my old DOS circuits analysis experience on a new machine.

Thus far, I haven't been able to make DosBox and mc2 coexist via a batch file; not necessary, but would be nice.
