Does anyone have experience with DosBox? If you do, then can you tell me why IVaN won't work on it? It seems like I'm just this close to playing IVaN. If it doesn't work, I've found a way to play it on my schools windows. But it's a friday, and after having a taste of it, I don't think I can survive a weekend without it.

I'm afraid DosBox won't run IVAN. It's designed to run in Windows.
