Hello Everyone I Just Recently Bought A New Comp With WinDows XP And For Some Reason I Cant Get These Games To Work On My Pc

Jazz The JackRabbit
One Must Fall 2097 [ OMF ]
Stone Breaker

What Happenes When I Load The Game Is It Starts To Load Like It Normally Dos In Dos I Get A Quick Black Screen And Then Nothing Shows Up ....Like It Juast Cancels Out ....Like It Didnt Even Load The Game Or Somethin ....

How Can I Get These Games To Work On My New Comp

Any Help I Would Greatly Apreciate It THANKS EVERYONE SpeedFighter !

Not that it helped me much but I guess I havent tried to rectify it much either.

DOSbox is your best bet to get it working, which part of DOSBox are you gaving trouble with?

For me it wasnt so much there being a problem with DOSBox itself but just that I cant really find the proper commands. Ppl will reply to topic and leave afew out. It would just be nice to have like an instrustional thing to work from that has all you need instead of different ppl telling you different things. Congratulatory

You might want to check this out, it could help you out a little. Other then that post something like *Warning I'm a DOSBox n00b* at the start of your post and people will know not to leave anything out Shit-Eating Grin
