What about the program that installs all of Jim Kitchen's games in one
whack?  That will install them onto a Windows 7 machine, right?

Hi Lisa,

Fortunately, most games except for some very old 8-bit and 16-bit Dos
games will run fine under Windows 7 provided all the dependencies are
met. A case in point is the Kitchens Inc games.  Since they were all
written in VB 6 which is no longer officially supported by Windows 7
and above you need to install Jim's Winkit file found on his site
which adds the necessary files and components you need for his games.

As for if there is a Dos box I am assuming you are talking about the
Windows Command Prompt. Yes, Windows 7 still has it, but it will only
work with 32-bit and 64-bit Dos applications. It will not work with
anything 8-bit or 16-bit do to changes in the Windows architecture and
the new 64-bit processors. That said, there is an alternative. There
is a talking Dosbox floating around that you can install that still
plays old Dos games, but it leaves a lot to be desired. Still, barring
anything else it really is the only thing available currently for very
old Dos games on modern Windows.
