I have a question. I want to play the Kyrandia games on here and the file I downloaded has a SETUP button that is required to play the game,but it wont let me set it up it says you have to run X86.If there is a way to do this please tell me

[stefanbands]

OMG YOU GOT XBOX IP HACK!



[Sonics777]

Keeps saying that the file is "unable to change"

[MarioMasterMan64]

I downloaded Fallout 1, 2, and tactics off of steam. Tactics works fine, but 1 and 2 have glitched graphics. Would this process work with the games I downloaded off steam? Or will I have to download fallout 1 and 2 roms?

[doomman117]

@MarioMasterMan64 buy them on GOG.com its $12 for fallout 1 and fallout 2. you will not have the rainbow graphic glitch

Thank you

[LeighzerCuber]

just taskkill explorer.exe. with a cmd window open and start a game through cmd (knowing the pathway to the game) play the game. Exit game. Start explorer.exe through the cmd window you left open. Wallah

[StrictlyRubAduB]

dosbox is actually unix but it runs dos games.

[kralkius]

It says that this program cannot be run in DOS, solutions?

[adrian1372]

I can launch games perfectly, but they tend to lag a lot.

I'm on a Win7 with 4GB RAM.

Solutions?

[Thomazz46]

Also, when I mount the folder DD2 is in via C:\ and I look into the directory, there's only 3 files, none of them are either .bat or .exe

What should I do?

[Thomazz46]

Mhmh, seem to have a problem... I'm trying to run it from a cdrom, so I mount my E:\ station instead. But when I type in CD DD2_PC (the game is Destruction Derby 2, mounted via Daemon tools) Dosbox says: unable to change to DD2_PC

Any help?

[mrmerked1]

what if the game is off a cd and you can't install it because it's not compatible?

[MrPhatkent]

[98mita]

I need help i have windows 7 and i cant run Half-Life 1 can i get an answer i cant start it. Every time i want to start the game it starts and shuts down. I need help its a cool game!

[thepro4grrammer]

@98mita if this is a legal copy this usually will not happen here are some of the reasons i can think of. 1. your graphics card cannot handle it. 2 the crack that you have is not good. 3. wat type of a file is it?

[98mita]

@thepro4grrammer Yeah it is legal copy i bought it on steam and when i start the game it automatic shuts down! can you help me?

[thepro4grrammer]

@98mita ok try to run it as an iso if it is an iso if not drag it in your desktop right click on the game shortcut press properties then there is a tab called compatibility click on it then run this program in compatibility mode check this then select for 98 or 95 and that should work.

[thepro4grrammer]

@ConsoleGAMER25 open files for doom 3 and drag them into the games files and then click proberties and see if it is a .exe or what ever

[thequeenxo]

I'm trying to play Harvester.. An old game that's been banned in several states... Now, when I type in "cd [file name]" it says "Unable to change to [file name]" ... Help?

My file is an .ISO file.. Idk if that makes a difference...

I have MagicISO & I can't do anything after I mount it because I need to use DOS. :[

[thepro4grrammer]

@thequeenxo try to convert it to a .exe

[thequeenxo]

I can't convert the files, but I extracted the .exe file & it's still saying the same thing.

@thepro4grrammer
