            @herb_fargus im looking for dos games that use a disc. Need to make more use of my two cd drives. I havent used scummvm yet. I know they use point and click games. Can it run games from the discs?

              The 'Sherlock Homes: Consulting Detective' trilogy are three of my personal favorites. Some others that I have installed are:

              'Mortal Kombat Trilogy'
              'Night Trap: Director's Cut'
              'Dungeon Keeper: Gold Edition'
              'Leisure Suit Larry 6: Shape Up or Slip Out!'

                    @herb_fargus yeah i have been collecting a list of games to start buying. I like the thought of being able to use my disc drives on my pi. Otherwise i have two dvd drives doing nothing. I only have 3 games at the moment i can use. Two for dos and one for windows 3.1. Need more games. :) unfortunately the ultimate doom trilogy disk does not work in dos so i have to buy those games all seperate. I have some games on floppy i have installed but i want to buy the cd versions so i can use the discs. Sounds crazy i know, but when i do a post of my modded pi in the next couple week (waiting on post from china) you will understand why. I need to find some mac os games on cd that dont require a power pc. (Riven wont run because of it.)
