I recently got a copy of Queen: The Eye. The game requires dos/windows95/98 to run, it refuses to run in XP past a certain point in the menu.
So, my two choices: DosBox, and VirtualPC.
now, dosbox took a bit of configurating, but using one of the GUIs for it, i created a shortcut to boot the game. It runs fine, but a tad slow when the whole screen is accessed (FMV...)
VirtualPC works wonders but it's harder to use than a Shortcut. Should be fine for you, but for my dad, who I got The Eye for, he doesnt know anything about PC's.
MS VirtualPC 2004 just became free, this is what I've been using :)
