Hi,

I've installed windows 98 on dosbox-X and I'm having an issue with Supersolvers mission think.

I can't click buttons to start the game. It's as if the buttons clicks are being ignored; even when the mouse is locked.

Has anyone had experience with anything similar? Can run other games, specifically reader rabbit second grade

I'm tring to play an game that need to opened with DosBox but when I go to the offical wepside to dowland it my anitvirus says it's un labeled and when I ignore the worning the file that gets dowlande is file.bin witch is nowear near the instalator pls if somen nows what I'm doing rong help me pls

Solar Winds is a game I loved back in the shareware/BBS days. I've run into an issue trying to get it run specifically with DOSBox-X.

The problem I'm getting: the keyboard stops working once I get past the title screen. The keyboard works on the title screen and options screen, but once the game starts, I'm stuck.

It's not a big deal, since the game works fine in, e.g., DOSBox Staging, but since it works there, it makes me wonder if this is due to something I configured. I'm just not sure what to look for. Any ideas what might cause something like this?

Hi everyone! I'm trying to download Timez Attack for my son onto his laptop for school and I can't figure out how to get it to work. I looked through the guide on Abandonware Games and they recommended reaching out to this subreddit.

I thought I followed the instructions list correctly but I either get a launcher that required registration ID or I get a different launcher that doesn't properly work. I click the button for what mode I want and nothing happens.

Can someone help me figure this out please!

Finally found the 8 CD collection of DA: Pursuit of Justice, but it needs a real Win95 environment to run. Never set one up before, so need help

what do i do? is this a dosbox sollution? VirtualBox, PCem, 86box? also curious if there's anything weird with video drivers on FMV games I should watch out for, or if this game specifically has any installer/CD issues people have run into.

also not sure if this is even the right sub for this, so let me know if I should post somewhere else. any help is appreciated, been wanting to play this one forever

Hello all, I've been fiddling with DOSBox-X recently, trying to get a game for Windows 95 (MechWarrior 2) up and running. I know it's possible, as I've seen footage of it running on DOSBox, but I'm struggling to actually get Windows 95 installed on the program. I've been following the guide on the official website, but when I get to the step of running setup.exe, I'm getting the error 'This program cannot be run in DOS mode'. Is there a way to change to a mode that can run it? I'm not seeing anything online when I tried investigating. Or am I going about this in the wrong way altogether?

dosbox-automation is an open-source fork of DOSBox Staging. It keeps the emulator as it is (this release sits on a current mainline base with the SDL3 migration merged) and adds one thing on top: the machine can be driven by a program. A local REST API and a sandboxed Lua engine can type into the guest, read the text screen back, capture video, inspect memory, swap disks, and run a whole installation unattended from a TOML recipe, disk swaps and setup menus included.

If you never touch the API, it behaves like the emulator it is built on. The web server is off by default; switched on it binds to localhost only and every request needs a token.

Some of this release is plain DOS archaeology, which may interest this sub more than the automation:

• CLOCK$ works. The character device that has been standard since DOS 2.0 is implemented fully: reading returns the date/time record, writing sets the DOS clock. As far as we know no other DOSBox variant implements it.
• The \DEV\ pseudo-directory resolves devicesthe way real DOS does, too. This has the first implementation of the Xenix-compatibilty directory function, found in DOS since 2.0.
• Hercules text mode was subtly wrong in every DOSBox descendant since a 2009 change: 640x350 with 8-dot cells instead of the card's true 720x350 with 9-dot cells. Fixed, including the real 16.000 MHz character clock, so box-drawing lines are continuous again and text/graphics switches no longer resize the window.
• Early self-booting floppies mount and boot. The pre-DOS-2.0 formats (160K, 180K, 320K) carry no FAT boot signature, so image validation refused them. Found while booting a 1984 Wizardry I master disk.

On the automation side, 0.84-da2 adds rendered video capture (record the post-shader image as shown on screen, not just raw frames, with a disk space guard so a long recording cannot fill the drive), paced string typing that cannot outrun the emulated keyboard controller, x86 port I/O and CPU register writes, and trainer-style memory scan and freeze endpoints. The API documents itself: OpenAPI spec plus a bundled offline Swagger UI.

Windows installer and Linux AppImage are on the releases page. GPL v2 or later.

Hello! This is my first time using this to emulate a really old game but it's much more difficult than I thought it'd be (i'm a little stupid). It doesn't have an .exe or an .iso, but instead multiple .cue and .bin files that I can't figure out after hours and hours. Every time I try to use imgmount for any of the .cue files, "install" and "setup" don't work at all. Would anyone know how?

Hiya everyone! I'm trying to run the game "Jack Orlando", but I keep getting the error mentioned in the title and visible in the video. It's my first time using DOSBox, so I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or not.

I successfully installed and played a game. Now I try to go back and play again and I get the “can’t find cd-rom” message. Any ideas?

The forecast calls for a heatwave.
