64-bit Win7 system to play DOS classic software and games

  
to see this title will be very touched, often 70 or earlier predecessors, until now, the company often hears assassins are constantly What do you think of the Three Kingdoms, the Three Kingdoms, and the devour of the world... An era has passed. Just like when we play small P, there will always be simulators playing games such as red and white machines, Contra, Super Mario, Prison Break, Double Dragon, Green Corps... The past is over, There may still be a space in the hard drive that preserves the classics that have touched and deeply remembered you.
Here, we recommend DOSBox, a free DOS simulation software from www.dosbox.com. DOSBox software is a perfect solution for running DOS games on Windows systems. This software can not only support quite a lot of games. It works well and it can express the sound perfectly.
Since Windows XP, the built-in DOS emulator has become limited, and on 64-bit Windows (XP, Vista, Win7 or server systems), users can't even run 16-bit Windows applications, let alone Said 16-bit DOS program.
Of course, users can use a virtualization solution to run DOS applications, but this can fail due to other factors. If you install the 0.73 version of DOSBox, then after installation, 64-bit Windows will also generate an error message, and in some cases will run smoothly. The simulator uses only a few DOS commands, so it usually has the ability to run programs. If the user wants a mature DOS environment, you can use FreeDOS in DOSBox.

In order to run an external program in DOSBox, the user must add a folder on the host with the "mount c c:[folder]" command. This folder will appear on the C drive.
In order to make configuration settings such as screen size or high memory available to the program, the user must edit the doxbox.conf file. There is also a set of front ends that simplify configuration.
It must be admitted that when I first used DOSBox, I was very excited. When WordPerfect is installed, it is natural to recall what system management was like in the past. The DOS era has only been around for 20 years, but compared to today's information society, this environment seems to be a bit outrageous. Considering the rapid development of the information technology industry, it is possible that the development in the next five years will exceed the past 20 years. If this is the case, Windows 7 will soon become another original operating system. However, we are thinking that in the future, Windows 7 simulators will run in the cloud or in mobile phones that run on watch sizes.

OK, let's take the example of "The Legend of the Sword and the Chivalrous Man" to see how to play.
1, first download the latest version of DOSBox.
2, download is complete, start the installation. It can be installed to any directory. After the installation is complete, the program group will be generated in the start menu. The DOSBox.conf file is the configuration file of DOXbox. Keep the default configuration to run the game smoothly. Alt+enter can be full screen. If you feel that the game running speed is not suitable, you can modify cycles=3000. Scale 3000 appropriately.
3. Running DOSBox will open two DOS windows. We just need to type
mount ch:pal
in the following window to load h:pal as C drive, h: Pal is the directory where "The Legend of the Sword and the Chivalrous Man".
4, type c: Enter the C drive, type pal.exe to enter the game.





In fact, DOSBox settings are still quite a lot, the specific is not described here, this article is just the beginning, more, leaving everyone to play, 64-bit system If you have this software, it will be OK. If you have any problems, search for it :)
