I have a SBC with P233MMX (but have also a K6III 400 if i need) with Alladin V and a graphic card C&T 69000. That card, is good enough for retrogaming '90 era? I means: no 3D games or only software render 3D games, if i remember wheel the real heavy 3D that need a 3D accelerator come out in a late …

If i made "restart in ms-dos" appear that... https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JVmavEMs-HlG … iew?usp=sharing

Yes thanks but... i remember in pure DOS 6 in my 486 that all the instruction must be write on autoexec and config.sys a computer with Win98 that start automatically in Windows.. how work?? Autoexec.bat and config.sys are also used or all the configuration must be put inside the windows register??

Hello to everyone. I have bought a Notebook Acer extensa with PII 366, Video Card compatible (i think), CD-ROM, Floppy Drive as my primary Machine to use with the older DOS Games ( from 1992 to 1999 approx, NOT EGA ecc.. from Monkey Island II forward). As a child I had a 486 DX2 with a Sound Blaster …

Depends on the price. In laptops, at least, there are hardly any "ideal" machines for any given time period. 15€, but price is not really a problem, goal is to be more compact than a desktop and to play 90% of dos games natively. i know that changing card in a desktop 486 or Pentium give me 100% of …

You know this notebook? Looking this spec, you think was ok for 1992->1997 games? DOS and some win games? Card is ESS Solo-1E These are the spec: http://users.libero.it/andrea-c/acer_travelmate_517te.htm No, I don't "know" this machine. I'm just judging by the specifications and what I can find on …

And if i connect to the external monitor, same i did on a desktop computer? I ovecome this problem... when i am on a mobility i have some troble (but work) on my home connecting to the crt made this nice and clear or not? what you think about the soundcard compatibility? and the excessive CPU Speed …

Well, the 486 should serve you well for most things DOS/Windows 3.x/9x. That's been my experience for over 20 years. Skimming the thread 1.) The 486 DX2 should be pretty capable of covering anything DOS From the mid-80's on up to maybe 1997-1998 at the latest. If it has a Turbo Switch, it may …

No idea about the Acer Travelmate 517TE, but the specs are good for late DOS games. However, it has a 1024x768 screen, which will most likely only do integer scaling by 2 or non-integer scaling without caring about the aspect ratio. If that's the case, it's almost unusable for DOS games, since you …

please explain better this think... in my 486DX2 i had a Sound Blaster PRO and every game i remember use it in a wornderfoul way. SB16 is not an upgrade of that card??? Why i can't use? I have a 16bit ISA in my 386sx20 SB16 is better than the Sound Blaster Pro. It just isn't compatible with all of …

Amiga4000.... Sweet machine, though not really what I would go for, when dealing with Dos. The 386sx CPU that you have on the bridgeboard, might be enough for stuff like Dynablaster and Civ1. You can easily run Monkey Island, loom and Indiana Jones 3 on that machine. Those three titles can even run …

And that SB16 is wasted - chances are the CPU wouldn't run any of the SB16 titles, leaving you with only SB 2.0 features (and no SBPro because the SB16 isn't backwards compatible with the Pro). please explain better this think... in my 486DX2 i had a Sound Blaster PRO and every game i remember use …

While DOOM technically runs on a 386SX, it's not playable. Stuff like Wolfenstein 3D or Wing Commander 1+2 are the most complex games you can play on that. The 386SX is limited by its 16-bit bus and an ISA VGA card doesn't help either. RAM is also quite slow with an SX. No idea about the Acer …

First of all, i want to say hello at everyone. I'm born in 79 and after Amiga500 i had a Legendary 486DX2 66. This computer travel me in the awesome first mid of '90 games, until my first Pentium 133 at 94/95 if i remember. Now i want to come back at this emotional moments, my configuration is a …
