I got to hand it to Bethesda (Same people who do Fallout). While most other companies would just release a box set not Bethesda. You don't see most franchises that are still going doing this.
Now because they're DOS programs You have to follow the kind of complex instructions:

I was able to get both to work just fine and I haven't used DOS since I was like in forth grade (I miss my little dinosaur eating people screen saver). However a weird thing happened, see I installed Elder Scrolls 2 first, and it worked. So I went back and downloaded Elder Scrolls 1 and now 2 doesn't work (wanted to test the shortcut at the bottom of the second install instructions I posted). I think I know what I did but odd.
Unlike the Ascendancy game I posted earlier or the Ur-Quan masters game there's no Windows version of this out. So sadly you have to use DOSbox. But DOS Is a good program to learn anyway. Lot of the very best games are DOS games. No I'm not lying. Go play X-Wing Gold if you don't believe me
If anyone has any problems installing them let me know. They're pretty straight forward. I used 'DOS' as the name of my DOS directory. Far shorter than dosgames or documents\dosgames. I think that's the superior route to go since you have to type the damn thing out and cntrl V doesn't work. Believe me I tried.
Oh and if anyone knows the command to run Warcraft 2 in DOS mode that would be cool. I've been trying to finish it for over a year now. I downloaded the next 350 level unofficial expansion pack so its quite a goal believe me. And the damn thing crashes all the time in windows.

How many Minbari does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
None. They always surrender right before they finish the job and never tell you why.

Re: Elder Scrolls 1 and 2 Free
After playing Elder Scrolls 1 for a little while i can safely say its worth downloading. Lot of fun, randomizes dungeons so you'll never have the same dungeon twice (except the 16 storyline dungeons).
Just make sure if you do decide on downloading it you hit cntrl F12 until your speed is 30,000 or it will run like its laggy.
