Hey,
I rescued old pc - AT with pentium 200mmx on it.

I remember from the past that pentiums had issues with some old software - runtime errors, etc.

Is there anything to be added to autoexec bat to make the stuff more compatibile, avoid crashes, freezes etc? especially on old games.

I have w98 installed on it, and run dos mode both from win gui and/or from f8 during boot to command line

Hi, PhilsComputerLab covered this quite well for the 233MMX CPUs, the 200 will do the same tricks but end result will be just a little slower per speed setting, so you might need to use the next one up. https://www.philscomputerlab.com/136-in-1-pentium-mmx.html

Unicorn herding operations are proceeding, but all the totes of hens teeth and barrels of rocking horse poop give them plenty of hiding spots.
