Best way to run DOS game on XP
Trying to install Silent Hunter Commander's Edition (cuz I can't get TMA figured out on Sub Command) but XP doesn't allow manipulation of XMS so I can't seem to get past that. Tried DOS Box but probably not usiing it correctly. Tried the fix at subsowespac.org/sh_xp/silent_hunterxp.shtml but can't find the system32/command.com file. Someojne has suggested VBox?. I jus wanna play to stupid game. Any suggestions?

download virtual pc from microsoft, make a dos install from dos 6 or win95 files (should be "resources" out there) and run the game in the virtual window? worth a shot
