They're not even copy-protected, so Dosbox doesn't have that to worry about. (Which accounts for why people have 'lent' them around even though they are NOT free ...)

Ray is correct. Val4/Spec for some reason do not work on DosBox in Windows 10 for some reason. The program will load, but if you try and process a card, you get a bunch of errors. Not sure if it is a DosBox issue or a Windows issue. However, if you run Val4 on Windows XP natively or via VirtualBox/VMWare on a modern Windows system, it runs like a dream.
