Agreed. AwesomeSauce, you need to be specific about what games you are trying to run and on what type system. How are you running them now, and where are you running them.

It seems you have posted your question the same way your DOS games are running. How do we fix that?

Ok....

I've got XP. And when I try to run an old DOS game like "Corncob 3D" (something you've probably never heard of) it runs too fast and choppy. other games will be choppy and pause frequently.
