Re: DOSBox vs DOS 6.22 in DOSBox

Posted on 2021-05-08, 02:59

It's like saying "It's the Sorcerer's Stone not Philosopher's Stone!111". At least it offers some good things like …

Re: Which Win version for late 90's games?

Posted on 2021-04-12, 02:43

in Windows
XP should be the most compatible with late 90's games, other than that you can also further downgrade to Windows 2000 or Windows 98, as long as you have all drivers available for those OS versions. Though, most games should still sort-of work on Windows 10. Especially with the "Integer Scaling" mode …
