I'll see how it works with Warcraft 1.

I'll bet it will, now, provided your computer can run it fast enough... haven't tested that one myself, though.
I need to test Terra Nova in it. For some odd reason, while the setup program runs just fine (sound test works correctly, etc), the game itsself just blackscreen crashes... annoying. :( Games run better in actual Windows (er, DOS, really) than any emulator, provided they don't have speed or running-in-Windows problems...

Terra Nova crashed in the new DOSBox, but reading some stuff about the game on the web I found a command line switch that fixes the problem...(to get it to run directly in WinME that is, not through DOSBox; maybe that would fix the problem there too, but I haven't tried.) awesome game. It's like TIE Fighter and MechWarrior 2, FPS-style... :)

Warcraft 1 finally runs perfectly. Games that needed more powerful systems weren't a problem, but this one oddly caused a lot of stuttering during the FMVs. That's over now. Also, DFend, a great frontloader for DOSbox, seems to work fine for this version.
Now then, the next step is testing Wing Commander IV and Kingdom O' Magic.
