I have been trying to emulate windows 3.x for some time but every time I try to set it up I get confused and give up. Do I need to set up a computer emulator for windows 3 or can dosbox run any game? They are coming out with a windows 11 and I don't want to have to set up an emulator every time I try to play a game for a new computer system, I already have 3 different computer emulators for mac games.

Just get the eXoWin3x collection and save yourself al lot of trouble.

You're welcome ;)

Running Windows 3.1 on anything but MS-DOS or IBM-DOS (which in and of itself is a rebranded MS-DOS) is asking for trouble.

Which is to bad, back when I was a DOS user I actually preferred Novell DOS and my boss was a big fan of DRDOS, which was really the same thing, he was just older and knew it by the older name.
