Thanks for that, Capt. GrayWolf !

And by the way -- something's happened since last week lol
I found an "IBM ThinkPad" -- along with some office furniture -- from 1995 !
I've used "Windows95" before & if I remember right you can access MS-DOS directly.
So I'll try ta finagle it from that angle.
Any tips ?

That was my solution, just get a Win95 PC and dedicate it to old subsims

So it'll run OK in "Windows95" -- without "DOSBox" -- without any finagling ?

It's working perfectly now !

Thanks, guys !
