When installing DOS games U should actually read the messages that pop
up before hitting the OK button: Some of them could B important - they
may tell U that this game won't run under windows9x with the current
system settings, while other messages may even say something like "this
application has caused an illegal action and will be closed". 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).
