I'll try to put all my questions together here. Each time when I search the Internet for answers this forum is in results, so just want to say, how grateful I am.
Anyway, here are my questions:
1 - Is there any DOS enhancer that would change its colors and would make possible to rewind the screen with previous commands? I know about doskey, but maybe there is something better than that?
2 - I try to use my Z250 ATAPI zip drive in dos (Pentium 120, MS-DOS 6.22). I found on the Internet that program guest, but it was unable to see my drive. When I install Iomega software, I was able to found the drive after running guest, however it was some random unreadable signs on the disk, instead of files. Is anyone successful with using Z250 or Z100 ATAPI in dos? What do I need to put in my config.sys and autoexec to be able to use it?
3 - I use oakcdrom driver. After executing the driver, the whole system stops for a good 12 seconds. Is that normal? Is there a way to make it faster? What oakcdrom alternative I should use?
4 - Long time ago I was using XT computer at my friend's house. I remember that there was a demo or test file that was showing some stunning screens and calculations. I know it was not a scene demo but one of these commercial demos to show how great that particular computer was. Where can I found some of these demos? Do you guys recall any good ones?
5 - I have AWE64 Gold card and Roland MT32. I hooked it together but Roland is not recognized in games. Can I actually use it with AWE64? Do I need to have anything in autoexec to make it running?
6 - Last one - I know that VOGONS does not allow to make sale trade buy offers. Where is the best place to do so? I know eBay is the place, but maybe something more "inner circle" (For US)? BTW, this forum would be perfect for that.
Thank you and regards for all.
