Hi,

One of my favourite games ever is an old one called Mordor: The Depths of Dejenol, made back in 1995. I'm running it on XP and have no problems, but I gave a friend a copy and he is trying to run it on Vista, with little success. The game installs and starts, but then refuses to take any commands. I've searched the net and have seen a few people report the same problem in various forums, but no solutions offered. Anyone out there have any ideas?

DOSBox, an x86 emulator with DOS

It's a MS DOS emulator, which should be of help to you.
