"heard the Mad Scientist in the intro actually talking I completely lost my shit" - HA! Exactly this! Ah yea, fiddling around with autoexec.bat and config.sys to make funky menus to show the games I had installed (I think, it was a while ago ... also something to do with mscdex .. but that might have been later)

mscdex, I think was the ‘driver’ for the CD-ROM drive?

  Sort of. MSCDEX were CD-ROM API extensions for MS-DOS. You had a low-level driver that talked to your optical drive, and MSCDEX talked to that.

    Would that be considered a TSR?

      Yep-- a classic example of one.
