In case anyone is interested, I've just added SDT.COM (Serial Debug Terminal) and PPDEBUG.COM (Parallel Port Debug) to the DDLINK package. These are a couple of my DOS tools I often use when making interface cables because they let you easily see and manipulate the individual signals/pins on the …

I agree with Weldum. An N3710 "should" should beat a single core Pentium 4.

One way to approximate performance is to find a Geekbench benchmark and compare Single Core performance.

Did you try mode + ctty? Have you looked at FreeCOM's copy source? https://github.com/FDOS/freecom/blob/master/cmd/copy.c I also posted some notes to the FreeDOS-Devel list which may have some response to what I suspect is a bug.

I wrote that, started thinking about it in the shower, and made that conclusion. However, your pic really show how good of design this all turned out. Again, awesome!

I've spent some time determining which byte values are/are-not blocked in FreeDos: COPY COMn: file and have adjusted my bootloader accordingly... I just posted a new Version (1.7) of DDLINK which can "bootstrap" better with FreeDos! Dave Dunfield ::: https://dunfield.themindfactory.com or: "Daves …

I think Netware is off topic too. The original post was about adding protocol documentation for a small utility that facilitates file transfer like FTP. I don’t think anyone really has anything to offer for or against your preference for Netware. It’s because you’re comparing something like FTP to …

Netware seems awfully complicated for most purposes and doesn’t interoperate with anything modern. That’s why TCP/IP won. It tolerates 8-bit machines with a serial connection or Raspberry Pi Picos bit banging on a few resistors & a couple wires, as well the latest enterprise server with a fiber …

IIRC, that CPU is likely slower than a P3 1GHZ. XP NTVDM (assuming the graphics card isn't an issue) w/VDMSound, ScummVM and ports are your best bets. For non-protected mode games (pre-1993) DOSBox performance will be fine except for edge cases. You can try ReactOS if you want, I haven't kept up …

I got it going with TimyCoreLinux 13.1 and DOSBOX-X. Perf wasn’t good though but I also know next to nothing about tuning DOSBOX. Maybe the regular DOSBOX tcz would perform better with fewer features.

I have a few suggestions though. It can not run an os(any) and keep enough power for emulation. I've been down that path.. Unfortunately I used to run emulators all the time when I bought my MSI Wind U100 new. It’s an Intel N270, Intel GMA950. It might even be the same OEM if the Wikipedia page is …

I have a few HP t5745, a MSI Wind U100, which have similar Intel Atom and I can tell you you're also going to have issues with the on-board Intel GMA950 graphics. It's not quite VGA/SVGA/VBE compatible. If you use Phil's Computer Lab's DOS Benchmark , you'll see issues with choosing certain graphics …
