    Is there a simple way to play old DOS games on windows 7? I have downloaded 2 DOS emulators but I could not make heads or tails on how to use them. One was DOSBox and the other was D-Fend. I could get D-Fend to recognize the game but it would not open it. Any help would be appreciated.

    I use DOSBox and I don't find it that complicated using this to run DOS games, not sure about other ways how to run these games, but as far as I'm concerned, you really need emulators.

    I have figured out how to install my games but I can't figure out how to play them after the first install. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks

    DOSBox is by far the easiest way to do it. That or re-buying your games through either Steam or GOG or some digital vendor that has already adapted the game for you.
