Here's what I did... I went to the website below and downloaded his 30 meg FSHistory package, the DosBox based one. I installed it and everything works perfectly under WinXP Pro SP3. Once I got comfortable working with the FS files, I set up a folder for Silent Hunter under the FS/ subfolder. I added a new profile for Silent Hunter and everything worked great the first time! 10 out of 10! I can even see the opening videos that I couldn't see when it was installed on my Win98 machine.

The DosBox based package uses "DFend" as a front end and it's very easy to use. I was able to add another 8 flightsims that were DOS only and a golf simulation that needed SB-16 support.
