    MS DOS problem

    My first post was deleted, so I will bring up my problem again. I recently came across an old game I used to play and found the urge to play it again only problem is that the game only runs on MS DOS mode and cannot load on my Windows XP. So my question is, can I somehow revert back to MS DOS mode in order to play the game? Or is their another solution?

    Your first post was not deleted but moved to the appropriate forum which was Gaming, not Desktop Computer Hardware Forum, for which I am going to move this there again. Please don't post another in Hardware, this is a gaming issue and has nothing to do with hardware.

    I did not know it was moved, the PM I recieved from a mod told me that it was deleted and to post it again in the same forum. So there.

    Depending on how your system is configured you could use one of several options:
    1:Use a DOS boot disk [wont work if the primary partition is NTFS]
    2:Use an application like DOSBox .
    3:Use an emulation package like VMWARE
    4: Dual boot

    All these of course will depend on the correct licences being held for the applications and games.

    Politeness in answering responders to your questions goes a long way
