In the original thread, a guy said that you could get 16-bit DOS applications to run on 64-bit Windows systems by copying ntvdm.exe from C:\Windows\System32 on ReactOS to the corresponding directory in Windows.
Anyway, I tried this on Windows 7 x64 and I am still not able to run DOS executables directly (that is, without resorting to DOSBox etc).
