There were a number of games from that era that were 32-bit games, but shipped with a 16-bit installer. If this is the case with the game that you are tying to run, you can use a VM to track the installation process to manually install the game. I use XP Mode and TrackWinstall to do this. It will …

If you are using an Android port of DOSBox, You should ask the author of that port as it is not supported here. It is not an official port.

I think if you're giving a new OS a try, and your approach is to find the settings that change things back to the way they used to be, you're completely missing the point. Instead of trying to get the "Quick Launch" back, try pinning programs. Try to get familiar with the new Start Menu before you …

I still miss the XP explorer thing: Up Button, explorer pane, triangles etc. There are several interface enhancements that 7 has that by now I find it a bit of a pain going back to XP. I love the previews of open items on the Taskbar, thumbnails for icons on the desktop, Aero Shake and jumbo high …

DOSBox is intended for games. While there may be some workarounds for some of your issues, you are probably better off setting up a virtual machine with DOS installed in it. If you had Win 7 Pro, you could have just used XP mode.

Perhaps you should automate your mounting. That way you could simply relaunch DOSBox for the exact same effect.

I see. You had only mentioned Win98. Keep in mind that DOSBox is intended for games, not applications. While many apps will run OK, there are things that some applications need that are not implemented in DOSBox as no games require them. This is why DOSBox is not recommended for applications. Often …
