Greetings MdaG,
it is either our way or the highway - she's gonna have to put up with it
Try wearing those boots, mate
Just follow Kurufinwe's advice on building and setting up a DOS comp.
Keep in mind, however, that there ARE problematic games even on the
ideal contemporary machine + DOS 6.22.
The one you mentioned - BIOFORGE - is a typical example. It needs a carefully set memory configuration and yet is buggy (save often and if you are stuck right at the beginning, look up the REAL DOOR code swhere not the one you see! Don't believe the log you find if you play on a Pentium - the infamous Pentium bug can mislead you !)
On emulation: Even if you have a shiny new, awesome 3.8 Ghz 2MB cache P4 the emulation speed in DosBox will be insufficient at some places in game.
After all, it is a protected mode game, pushing the limits of those DX2/66es...
But you CAN copy everything to HDD and run it from there !
