Hope this isn't going to be to controversial. I just opened a new thread on memory problems with some drivers in dos 7.1. I solved these problems but that's it. I have no game here that wouldn't run at least as smooth as it does in dos 6.22. I made this stand-alone dos 7.1 version because I thought it would give me some advantages over 6.22. Until now I can't see any pros except the higher HDD capacity. Why should one consider staying with 7.1 when 6.22 does the job so well?
My pure dos PC is running 6.22 because it just feels right with Windows 3.11
Every other PC has some version of Win9x so installing 6.22 makes no sense as I haven't run into any compatibility issues.
My rigs are pure gaming machines so don't see the need for "serious software" like Qemm, disk utilities, etc. I know things like Fat32 confuse them and cause problems
Other reason I'm a fan of 7 is the better memory management as per mdgx site krcroft linked before and Fat32
but don't think it's controversial question, maybe if your running Win9x on the same PC, but it's just personal choice.
Side note mdgx also has a page to dos 6 tweak as well
