Are you just worried about DOS or NT operating systems as well? The reason I ask is because you mention getting ems to work in modern computers..... If just DOS then AFAIK your only option is to remove or disable the hardware causing the issues or I think you can assign to different address using …

It's difficult to compare DosBox performance across different computers due to many factors: Crapped up Windows installs over the years. (Soyware/AV/misc hogging processor cycles/memory) Power savings modes on processors. Old DosBox versions. Improper DosBox configurations. Crappy video/Sound …

I'm unfortunately one of those people that tends to think in the long-term, whereas I've noticed most gamers/tech people tend to think in the short term. MS shouldn't be " …

This is not a DOSBox problem. It's an OS issue. DOSBox does not protect again ignorance like the example above. If the user had used the GUI delete function then the files would have gone to the recycle bin. and tried to clear it out by deleting everything I had mounted. I, um, was unaware that what …

This isn't that complicated and it's been stated a billion times before. Create a cue/bin image of your Mech2 CD. Mount it with imgmount. Install and play the game. It just works. No CD cracks, no fake CD programs, etc.
