Hello,
I have a very old executable which I still need to use for my work. It is developed special for my work sometimes in 90's, there is no alternative. Unfortunately the executable checks the version of dos and if the version mismatches I get an error (see attachment). I think it checks the answer of the command "ver".
So I am still using window98 in a virtual machine, however it is very difficult to exchange files between the host OS and windows98. I want to use it within dosbox but it gives the version mismatch error. So I am wondering if it is possible to make a patch or something like that to dosbox, so that it gives the same version number as a windows98 ms-dos prompt, perhaps my executable run well?
Thank you.
