I am going to try and run this old AH/Bigtime Software PC game on my Windows 10 PC.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Achtung_Spitfire!

I want to play it hotseat with my son. It's an old Windows 95 DOS game. What would be the best pain free method to get this running AND not see the A/C moving around at light speed?

Greetings Michael T,
I liked flying a spitfire in this old game and spent many hours with it. A good game.
I echo RangeJoe's advice to use dosbox.

I also would like playing Achtung Spitfire (and its sister game Over The Reich). I still keep an ancient W98 PC alive just to playt Flight Leader .

Can anyone provide a link that explains the procedure to run them in Windows 7?

If they are DOS games, use dosbox.

It is a great old game along with Over the Reich. Sad that Check your 6 was such rubbish.
