As a celebration to Dosbox by Jochen, I've created a tool with DrDialog that download DOSBox-X/2 (2026-02-10) and the free EA game Red Alert 1
It can use the version of DOSBox already installed.
Rename this updated version to CCRA.pat to CCRA.EXE and double click it to try it out.
Information
If you instead choose OS/2 DOS and have problems that OS/2 DOS stall... your system may stall as you try to run this DOS game as well.
Run DOS in full screen mode and use Alt + Home to switch to windowed mode.
Yes, the DOS setup application run after download, unpack, patch etc. to allow you to run it locally without CD or ISO image.
You can of course run against the ISO image as well, but must then mount it in OS/2 if you use it with OS/2 DOS and use "ASSIGN" or "SUBST", while DOSBox can mount ISO-files itself.
The patched _setup.exe can't detect your sound hardware, but do allow you to test the sound.
The suggested sound hardware work well with Dosbox and Dosbox-X/2 while it may freeze in OS/2 DOS if you don't have the hardware selected. Use Ctrl + Esc to escape back to the OS/2 Desktop to close manually then.
