Hi,
I have put together a kind of weird system for playing DOS games. They play, unscaled, in the center of a giant 384x256 pixel LED display. This works great for most old DOS games that are lower than that resolution. But the DOS interpreter itself is running in I think, 720x480. The scaler I have scales this down, making the text illegible. I have tried doing "mode co40" which is better, but what I would like is something that sets a graphical mode (ideally 320x240), and forwards commands back and forth to the interpreter. Is there an existing utility for doing this?

I'm not doing much from DOS, other than "CD"-ing around to run games. I am considering just adding a graphical boot menu for selecting games.
Thanks.
