Well, go to www.pcsgames.net. There's a link on the page that's called "how to use JFW and DOS, I'm pretty sure it's still there, and it does a lot better job explaining then I can lol. Anyways, if you wanna play dos games, go to that site and get the info from there.

Yes it is definitely possible, and really all you need to do is (1) Uncomment out a section in the Jaws scripts that doesn't allow Jaws to read correctly in Dos. If your interested in information on this send me your email address privately, (by sending me a private note or emailing me), and I'll forward the information. (2) Depending on what operating system your running find out how to get to a Dos window.

Yep, sure is. However you have to access it by going to the run dialog and typing cmd or command.
