I’ve been impressed by DOSBox-X lately, which works slightly better if you find yourself wanting a more faithful DOS and Windows environment. It’s also got more menus for common tasks than raw DOSBox.

- haunter 4y agoDOSBox Pure is also really good, it’s a fork made for RetroArch/libretro and works really well with some special features added https://github.com/schellingb/dosbox-pure https://github.com/schellingb/dosbox-pure But there are a lot of forks to choose from https://github.com/dosbox-staging/dosbox-staging/wiki/DOSBox-forks https://github.com/dosbox-staging/dosbox-staging/wiki/DOSBox...
- muro 4y ago+1 to DOSBox-x, it's great - e.g. better choices for MIDI, and supposedly also support for Windows 98, although I didn't manage to make that work yet.
- thom 4y agoYeah, I've got a pretty full environment with Office, old versions of Visual C++ and Visual Basic, even Encarta 95, and of course Castle of the Winds. No real justification for all this, obviously, beyond occasionally remembering software used to be snappy.
