Keep in mind, not all DOS games will run on Windows XP, though. Look into Compatibility Mode in Help and Support, and also do a Search in H&S for "PIF." This is for Program Information File, and H&S will lead you through editing the game's PIF so it believes it is getting XMS or EMS memory support. You could also do a search in this newsgroup, because this specific area has been covered numerous times. Search for "DOS" without the quotes. You'll even find help on getting sound to work in the games.
