Hi,I would first like to say what a great site this is.I've had my Caanoo for a few weeks now and im loving it :)
Just wondered if there was anything like a dos box or somthing simular to get the old dos games working.
I might have missed something in the search but thought id ask.
Thanks :)

You'll find a download by sdm at the bottom of the topic ( the latest version of it ): http://www.gp32x.de/board/index.php?/topic/60459-dosbox-caanoo-working-games/page__view__findpost__p__959577

It's tricky to get to work though, but sorry, I don't feel like writing a tutorial right now.

However, it works, it's not very fast, but a lot of games are playable, like Prince of Persia and all the Commander Keen games ( The Clone Keen port does actually work faster, but it's only the old Keen games and it crashes often, making it pretty much unplayable. )
