I click on the file and a dos windows pops up and says "the program is too big for the memory" I followed some of the steps on a page and im stuck on step 4. Check this page out: http://www.dosgames.com/xphints.php I dont know what to write for the full path when i open up program\advanced? My fear exe. is in a folder called: C:\Documents and Settings\Michael Chhoun\Desktop
i PUT THE AUTOEXEC.NT AND CONFIG.NT FILES IN THERE, but what do i put for the path file?

I thought FEAR was a new game (probably not DOS), but maybe I was wrong

Then download it from this site's utilty section and read the tutorial from the DOSbox website.

Are you saying you have it, but don't know how to use it? There's a real good example thread here.......

I downloaded it once looked at it, and didn't understand, so I just deleted it.

Big mistake. Redownload it. There's a stickied thread here somewhere that tells you how to use it. It's real simple. Either use that or google for DOSbox and use it's FAQ and tutorial to understand it.
