Larry 7: DOSBox or Windows?

Post by pppp »

OK so in celebration of the Larry 1 HD remake i decided to have a Larry marathon. Should i install my Larry 7 CD using Collector's installer or SquirtCat's installer? I'm assuming installing the Windows version with SquirtCat's installer will run at 100% performance as if i were using a real 486 Win 3.1 PC.I know i'll still need the CD to play but i don't mind that.If anything it brings me back to the old days :) .

But still i thought i should ask the experts.What should i do?

I used Collector's install when I recently played LSL7.

One thing to consider....you'll get more support here. The squirt the cat guy isn't around much.

The Windows version has nothing over the DOS version except extra bugs.
