    Install your DOS game in a directory such as c:\dosgames\spacman\
    Install dosbox: https://sourceforge.net/projects/dosbox/

    Run dosbox.
    Code:
    mount p c:\dosgames\spacman\
    p:
    spacman.exe
    Boom.

        I have DOS 6.3 software on 3.25" floppy
        ...still have the original box... somewhere...

        I could try to make a copy... ๐Ÿคฃ

        Have you tried retropie on a raspberry pi? You can play the original MAME version if you find it

        I even made a DIY small arcade control box with a USB module to use it on my games

            FYI, I was already born when IBM PC Jr where invented...

            I started on a 8086 that my father bough second hand and i worked a lot on 386 computer around '96 when they where more affordable due to the "new" pentium 1. This was the first time I could afford one for myself. Still have it in the basement. Also have some 8 pound hard drive with a capacity less than 1Mb open as a display to show younger people that hard drive space back then was really valuable.

            Was just trying to help since I use my retropie setup to play Atari 2600 Mrs Pac Man on any HDMI TV, I love those game too

                I have the original and many other versions on my RetroPi I can send you the micro SD you can copy it and send it back if you would like. Iโ€™m sure I could send it in an email or something but itโ€™s probably easier for me just to mail the SD card.

                I built a bar top arcade style one so I donโ€™t use my RetroPi much now.

                Shoot me a PM with your address if you want. I will throw it in an envelope.

                  you can just zip the sd card and attach it here, I think... let's see if this works.

                  EDIT: Yup... works. If it's too large and Chris doens't have his own cloud/server for you to upload it, I can host it for you.

                    this what i got from my buddy


                    OK, this might actually be easier.

                    Click the link to download the latest release of MAME
                    https://github.com/mamedev/mame/rele...228b_64bit.exe

                    I have attached the ROM file to the post. You should be able to obtain it from there.

                    All you need to do is run the MAME executable. It will create the shortcut to the MAME exe file. Then copy the superpac.zip file to the ROMS directory of MAME.
                    When MAME loads just press Enter on the Super Pacman Game. It will run. Usually the game controls are mapped to the arrow keys.
                    Up - Up Arrow
                    Left - Left Arrow
                    Right - Right Arrow
                    Down - Down Arrow
                    Start - 1 (Or Player One)
                    Insert Coin - 5

                    Let me know if you run into issues.

                    and this

                    https://quirkymojo.com/meetinghall/i...7.0;attach=245 a zip file of game
