Help running older DOS games with XP please
I am attempting to install an old DOS game to kill time on a long trip. I've tried using the DOSBox program, but the game is still giving me an error when I try to install it. It says Files / Buffers needs to be 20/20 and that mine is set to 40/0. The fix it suggests is to edit my config.sys file. Any ideas? Thanks.

Have you tried adding the line:
BUFFERS=20 into your config.sys?
