Hey, I'm new to the forum, and I was hoping I could get a little (ok a lot) of help. I love QFG, I mean I really do, definitly one of my favorite series of all time, but I have the hardest times getting it to work...I just downloaded dos box, and I have a copy of QFG collection I...acquired. I also have the quest for glory anthology on CD. But, my problem is I don't know how to get them to run at their best, or at all for that matter. If there's a guide out there, I'd loved to be pointed toward it, as I'd love to give these games another go. Well, if anyone can help me out, that'd be great. I've already downloaded dosbox, but don't know where to go from there...thanks all.
