Dosbox Free Download For Windows 8.1 64 Bit

DOSBox is a DOS-emulator that uses the SDL-library which makes DOS Box very easy to port to different platforms. It has already been ported to many different platforms, such as Windows, BeOS, Linux, macOS...
It also emulates CPU:286/386 real-mode/protected mode, Directory FileSystem/XMS/EMS, Tandy/Hercules/CGA/EGA/VGA/VESA graphics, a SoundBlaster/Gravis Ultra Sound card for excellent sound compatibility with older games...
You can 're-live' the good old days with the help of DOSBox, it can run plenty of the old classics that don't run on your new computer! DOS Emulator is totally free of charge and OpenSource.
At present, DOS Box running on a high-end machine will roughly be the equivalent of a Pentium I PC. It can be configured to run a wide range of DOS games, from CGA/Tandy/PCjr classics up to games from the Quake era.

as the C: drive and execute 'name'.
exit
It will close itself when the DOS application 'name' ends.
c command
Runs the specified command before running 'name'. Multiple commands can be specified. Each command should start with '-c' though. A command can be: an Internal Program, a DOS command or an executable on a mounted drive.

Start program with the users specific configuration file. Can be used together with multiple -conf parameters, but -userconf will always be loaded before them.
