Hi everybody. I'm a new member, my name is Gianluca and I'm from Italy.
Here is my problem. I tried to play FIFA 97 using my original CD-rom but It's impossible, even after I executed all the mounting instructions... Could anybody help me?
Thanks

Try downloading the latest experimental version of DOSBox from here:

http://builds.tharos-online.de/dosbox.zip

It is not a complete version of DOSBox. You open the Zip file, then copy all the files into the folder where you installed 0.72. Delete the old dosbox.exe and rename the new EXE to dosbox.exe.
