Feb 22, 2012 - Luckily though i got it working anyway without doing the whole TP thing, so all is well. Thanks.
TheStickKid Says:
Feb 22, 2012 - I tried that TP thing and did it correctly, but it always doesn't install it. It always makes me skip all the files or abort the thing when i try to begin installation!

Dec 27, 2011 - I do not know of any free video screen recording software for Mac. Snapz Pro X from Ambrosia Software is what I use for the Mac. They offer a free trial.

SchoolFreeware Says:
Dec 25, 2011 - Those programs need to run in Windows. You will need an emulator and a copy of Windows. A free Emulator is VirtualBox but you have to find a Windows Install CD someplace. - Also since you have a Mac you can edit movies with iMovie. iMovie should be already installed on your computer.

Oct 16, 2011 - I have dosbox on my desktop created my folder but it always says that the folder doesn't exist
sensibleGamer Says:
Sep 19, 2011 - It works fine for me, right up until I try to install Turbo Pascal. I did exactly what it says, slected C, \TP\Disk1, Install to Hard Drive, Start Install, then is just says "Cannot Execute Unpack.com, S)kip file, A)bort?". I watched your video several times, did each step EXACTLY as you did, but it still gives me the problem.
