@bruinsown85 Yeah you could install it normally, set the program to run in Windows 95 compatability mode, and then there was a DLL someone wrote that would act as a launcher and fix some other compatability issue.
@bruinsown85 Yeah I got it running on my XP machine. I didn't do the DOSBox method, so it's possible without, but it was hurdles upon hurdles to get that thing running.
This is great. I still think about MechWarrior 2 from time to time. It was such a fun game from my childhood. Glad to see it can still work using DosBox.
ok.... well you need to get DosBox. That'll let you at least let you install the game, and ultimately, run it. you just go into dosbox, mount onto the drive ur games on, then press MECH2 (command to start) good luck!
Yeah, I tried installing it through DosBox, won't let me run the installer or MECH2 or anything. I probably need the DOS version or something like that.
I have the IBM CD-ROM Version 1.1 cd...can i get this to work on dosbox? i tried and when i mounted the cd and ran INSTALL.EXE it said it couldent find a suitable temporary directory...can you help me?
where did you get the iso?

@ErgonomicChair Yeah I'd assume so, considering I got it on vista and now I use it on Windows 7
