Hi sorry if Im posting in the wrong forum, or have missed something glaringly obvious but I;m having a problem trying to use DOSbox 0.70

I have downloaded and attempted to use DOSBox, but each time i load the application i get the "dosbox.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." it then just gives me the send to microsoft , close and debug option.

What should I do???
Cheers

True, also check the new FAQ on this in the General Forum.

IIGS_User : Well us microsoft softies as you call us, are a bunch of people that like to know what the program in front is doing wrong. 😉 And with this it is clearly DOSBox that crashed due to a kernel problem and XP wants to let microsoft know of this software having problems, why and if it was their fault it crashed. Don't know what other OS's say when a program is about to crash due to a kernel or hardware fault.
