I've gotten the urge to play some old games of mine like XCOM UFO DEFENSE and Warcraft 1 that are DOS based. I have Windows XP and my computer ofcourse is now way too fast to be able to play them. (I tried).

I was wondering what the safest way would be to slow my computer down so I could play them, and I feel uneasy about downloading programs from random websites.

So I'm asking you guys if any of you use programs like DOSBOX or something what you would recommend.

Buy an old comp for $5??

Your on the right path using Dosbox. However since Dosbox is command line and not user friendly, get D-Fend which is a frontend for Dosbox which provides you with a GUI interface and lots of options. It works great and plays all your favorite old DOS games.

You can get D-Fend here: LINK
