You could use dosbox to run some of the games which used to run on msdos

DanmanX

Think they'd play though? I haven't had any luck getting dosbox to run at even somewhat of a normal speed.

Is there any way to get all the files needed off the CD so that you can play it in DOS only? what about a Virtual drive for PDA?

I count vouch for speed (although the latest version(s) of DosBox are very good). However, these games require a joystick (there's no mouse option, if I remember correctly) and lots of keyboard input so I'm not sure they'd be playable even if you can load them.

I could bet no. XVT was a WIndows game not a dos game anyway. Tie fighter might be a better bet but like said above. KB play might make it a pita lol.

X Wing would be your best bet... Yay for sprites!

But even then, it'd be a nightmare to control :s

Actually - this may work. Altough Hoodmeister's right about the controls. I wouldn't fancy using a virtual keyboard to deal with power management, speed, wingman commands and all those other controls you need to play the game...

Has anyone tried getting X-Wing (Dos program) to work? I actually still have the original disks. That would be awesome!!!!!!!!
