Hi Jacob, The problem with the windows command prompt , particularly on 64-bit Windows, is that it can not execute and run older 8-bit and 16-bit applications and games. There is the reason Josh is trying to run them under true dos such as inside a virtual machine or a Dos emulator like Dosbox. Certain apps and games simply will not run on a modern Windows 7 or Windows 8 computer which sort of bites. However, I have found a much easier solution than the one he uses which works for me.
