    DOSBox 0.73 - Play DOS games on Windows Vista, XP and other operating systems

    Some of the best games I've ever played in my life were released for the MS-DOS platform (Prince of Persia 1, Dangerous Dave 1 to name a few). These games were so good that they can still be enjoyed now, even in 2009. Unfortunately, modern operating systems such as Windows Vista does not include full support for legacy OS such as MS-DOS. DOSBox is an application that can really help you in such cases - it's an MS-DOS emulator that'll allow you run all your favorite DOS games and applications on operating systems without native DOS support (Windows Vista, Linux, Mac OS X and a number of others).

    ADOM runs fine inside DOSBox for me, and so does Windows 3.11.
