I tried downloading Starfight VI from the downloads area...The download information says the file is aboug 190 megabytes but my download stops at 135 megabytes and winrar tells me the archive is damaged. I tried downloading again to no avail, it stops everytime at around 130 megabytes.Is anyone else having this issue?

Tested the download at home and I was able to download the entire file which is 192MB+ and did it in a few minutes at 770kb a sec.

Hmmm okay, must be something on my end then. I tried both my desktop and my laptop so I guess it could be a router/modem issue (DSL) .

Haven't had to much time to really troubleshoot them. But I need more than just DOSBox to get them running I will need to load like Dos5.1 inside dosbox and do some configurations to see if I can get them working. Some of the guys in the forums at DosBox couldn't get them to run but they gave some suggestions on how I could go about it. When I get more free time to troubleshoot them I will look into it. If anything people will have the download and I will just state they will need to do some significant Dosbox troubleshooting or have a Win95 machine on hand in a VMware session or something to play it.
