Many old DOS games will not play on Windows XP, and if you are running a different operating system to Windows it can be even harder. DOSBox is a DOS emulator so the old software can run in a window.

The interface is rather basic and you have to manually mount folders to use their contents. There are links on the DOSBox website for various front end programs that you can use to make setting up DOSBox much easier.

If you have any old DOS software that you thought could no longer be used, think again, as DOSBox will give them a new lease of life.

In order to download DOSBox, you will have to select a site to download from the list of available mirrors. DOSBox for alternative operating systems can be found at http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/download.php?main=1
