There R many DOS based games, not many of them R suited 2 run in a multitasking environment & they all have their individual demands 2 enable them to run properly under win9x. Needless 2 say that getting all these games 2 work in every computer of any configuration & all settings is close 2 impossible. What is left 2 do is reading the system messages & trying different settings in the gane setup & windows' DOS shortcuts until U get it 2 work (or not).
