Help me Get Microsoft Space Simulator working on DOSbox

[stargazer1235]

Hi guys

So long story short, I found this game while snooping around the internet. I got some files of the internet but this program needs an DOS emulator to work. I got DOSbox but I couldn't get it to work at all, I went through so many tutorials and stuff but most were filled is computer jargon that I couldn't understand. So here is my current situation.

-I have 3 disk .exe files which I have managed to extract the contents from.

-I have a setup.exe file as well, and that seems to be the only one that works.

-I have a SPACESIM.exe file

-And finally I have a SS1.exe file.

I have managed to mount this to the drive using DOSbox and get the setup running but no further. When I run the game all I get is a flash then the command prompt. Any help is appreciated. (I don't come from the time of DOS, so a step by step tutorial would be really helpful.)

I am currrently using a windows 7, 64 bit laptop which a Radeon graphics. I am currently using DOSbox version 0.74.

Thanks

Hey guys

I see that I got 115 views but only 1 reply. Don't sweat, if I was in you chair, I wouldn't know what it was anyway. Anyway the point is that I found a file that configured the game to run on Windows 7 so I don't need DOSbox anymore. Thanks Hawkinator for your help.

Ok Mods you can close this now.
