Increasing juices, with more graphics and more complex stories, and, of course, more expensive. These are the premises that we need today to buy the latest games on the market. Without a doubt to move them we will need to loosen our pocket enough and sometimes we cannot or do not feel like it.

And if we add to the above that sometimes we can not even run those old games that have given us so much fun because they are not compatible with the wonderful Windows 10, the task is even more difficult for us.

We will begin to describe what DosBox is and what we can use this software for.

What is DosBox

DosBox is a software that contains an emulated version of MS-DOS. This MS-DOS emulator works and is compatible with all major operating systems like Windows, Linux and Mac.

Thanks to this emulator we will get all the tools we need to be able to run the MS-DOS operating system on our main system and thus be able to install those old games and other applications of the time without the need to use specific virtual machines for the purpose.

This DosBox emulator can be found available for free on its official website

To proceed to install this MS-DOS emulator the first thing we will have to do is download its latest version from the Web page. We will easily identify it as the first downloadable package on the page.

Once this is done, we will double click to run the installation process. It will be as simple as giving " Next " to all the installation windows.

We also recommend heading to the last section of the page where it says “ Translations ”. There we can download a package with our language where we will have a small DosBox user guide, as well as the language pack to translate the program, which is not too necessary either.

Help / all

We will have all the commands implemented in this version of the MS-DOS operating system
