Another option is to see if the games install properly on a img booted in DOSBox. A list of games with the issue would also be helpful for testing purposes.

Official DOSBox works on Windows 95 with Active Desktop and the SVN still works on 95 as well. Most unofficial builds of DOSBox do not support lower than XP due to most being built with Visual Studio 2010+ Check my thread for NT3.51+ and 95 (without active desktop) builds https://www.vogons.org/ …

Back in 1992 I only had a 286 with 1mb of ram so even when I did load Windows 3.x I didn't see the point. DOS software was so much more interesting and complex. Didn't do any web browsing since my parents were too cheap but did all of my BBSing via qmodem in DOS. So yeah not much Windows 3.x love …

I've never been a fan of the Dragon Age or Mass Effect games but I have played them. Andromeda was just mediocre it felt like they had a design document that they followed to the letter and checked all the boxes. Lots of crap thrown in but never felt like anything meaningful. As usual the "romances" …

More complicated than what you're looking for but this works well: http://josh.com/tiny/ Potentially more useful than CLI only if you wanted to run non-CLI programs.

The compatibility list is user submitted. If the op wants to run the game in an emulator then it'll likely run fine in an emulator that supports 9x as a guest like pcem. Also no it definetly is not. You should read up on it since it's pretty interesting.

9x is supported as a host system not a guest. and 9x is not a DOS app otherwise it would be supported in DOSBox...mabye.

If you want to use a screwdriver to hammer a nail then go right ahead. Just don't complain to the screwdriver manufacturer on how shitty of a job it does.

We don't support "abandonware" here. Ask for help from the place you downloaded the game from. Also learn how to use DOSBox.

Try WPA vs WPA2 AES vs tkip Make sure the settings match on both router and client. For older machines I found it simpler to use a wireless bridge that connects via ethernet to the NIC on the old computer

0.74 works on 95,NT4+. My build is the latest SVN which works on NT3.51+. Most of the compiled SVN vers that you find for download will only work on XP+. May have just found an issue with the newer GCC versions an older CPUs so tracking that down.

heh. You thought you made a backup but you didn't. The issue is probably safedisc or securom copy protection. It's easier to create an image of a copy protected CD and then use Daemon Tools than it is to burn it back and expect it to work. You're better off hunting down the cracks (Don't ask for …

Nothing with DOSBox was modified to make it run in DOS, only the usage of HXRT makes it work. SB16 and MIDI support are provided by HXRT. Last year a modified build of HXRT was provided with Intel HDA and AC97 support. Others benefits besides added game compatibility is the usage of scalers, …
