RADIX: Beyond the Void compatibility issue [Win7]

I just rediscovered my old favourite game, RADIX: Beyond the Void and I downloaded it and since I'm running 64 bit Windows 7 I downloaded DOSBox too. I admit to being a dunce in these matters... Can anyone tell me how to get it running? Thanks :rolleyes:

look what the cat dragged in !
:jester:

@pipster58:
Unzip all that's in the archive (radixsw11.zip - 15 files) into
\oldgames\radix\
Run dosbox now and input:

cd radix
setup


Correct choices:
SB pro 220/7/1
setup controller if you wish
save and exit
input radix to launch.

Next time you wanna play:

cd radix
radix


ok?

There's actually an updated shareware version available, v2.0 REMIX (among other things, it turns forced forward movement off by default). You can get it here:

Perhaps v2.0 could be added to dosgames.com's collection?
