I have never noticed any difference at all when running old games from a FAT32 partition/drive as compared to a NTFS partition/drive in WinXP or Win2k... DosBox is good for running actual DOS games, no need for voodoo magic or dual booting in that case. Games written for Win95/98 that were a hybrid of DOS and the windows layers on top of DOS don't work too well in DOSBox, and sometimes need an actual win98 install. WinXP is better at running old games than Win2k, but still not too good at it...
I considered DosBox to be voodoo magic. All I have to do is install my games on D: and they run fine. No reason for any program or dual boot. But I have been keeping DosBox in mind in case I ever find anything that refuses me.
