Hi!

So well, I'm installing Windows 98 SE on Dosbox soon, and I'm just asking.... is there any way (like a CVS bild) to have internet on it?
I'm trying it out, because there are some old Win9X games that won't work on WinXP.

Also, I'd like to see how Win9X games with MIDI music sound liek with a Sound Blaster 16 compatibile sound card. (i never had an SB at home. My 486 computer only had a PC Speaker, and my P1 had some sort of integrated soundcard without FM synth. I don't even know where are those old omputers anyway.)

So, what are your advices?
Remember, I don't want anything serius, I'm just trying it out to see if it works and to see how well does ti work.

Well, Win 3.11 works fine for me in DosBox, altrough I couldn't get internet working (I'm using DOSBox Megabuild6).

I've heard that people could install and use Windows 95 and 98 in Dosbox, I never tried it, but I'm going to go for it today or thomorrow.
