Hey, Ron. Actually you can run these old games in windows 7 32 bit. The way I did it I put the old dos games on my d drive and then I went to command prompt and type in d:\ and whatever the file is call. Hope that was helpful to you. -- Email services provided by the System Access Mobile

Hi dark, I believe the problems are because of his email provider blocking out potentially risky attachments. Wouldn't be a first, I'm 100% sure google does it, and since you can't even run a program in system access's file manager, it'd come as no surprise that they'd be stripping messages

That's some really nice news. I'm all for that kind of thing. I've quite successfully got a stable website up that will not be going down or anything, and I'd gladly offer to host the games there. I may be able to receive the attachments via an an email address that shouldn't block it as well.

Hi, Well, it depends on the game actually. I have some Dos programs I compiled for a 32-bit target environment and those run fine on Windows 7 64-bit. Its the older Dos programs that were compiled for a 16-bit op that have issues. I have not located a Dos emulator that works with a screen reader

Hi Michael, That only works if you have a 32-bit system and 16-bit backwards compatibility. Windows 7 64-bit has dropped support for 16-bit applications. On 10/19/11, michael barnes c...@samobile.net wrote: Hey, Ron. Actually you can run these old games in windows 7 32 bit. The way I did it
