I have been looking for a way to turn an obsolete laptop into a DOS machine.
I found mention of the DOS + HX DOS extender + vdmsound solution, But not resent and not with much success, apparently.
Also, these mentions are more than 5 years old and as option to specific problems.
My old laptop has no legacy support and a 1Ghz core and 1 gig RAM, but the only real problem is sound. It is for gaming mostly.
So I am looking at a sort of emulation for that. I thought about the option above.
It should be possible, but with my skill set, I already have trouble getting DOS installed via USB.
Also, I think that with a piece of software that can bridge between DOS and modern hardware.
We could maybe solve a lot of compatibility issues in DOS programs and games.
And be able to run them directly on hardware without a full scale emulator on top of an OS.
Does anyone know if this can work or help me get something like it to work?
I would love to have a real DOS (not emulated or virtualized) running again.
Thanks,
Daniel
