  • Thanks!
  • Dans les années 90 j'ai écrit, pour mon usage, une application de gestion de comptes en Dbase III plus. Lorsque les PC Windows sont passés du 16 bits au 32 bits j'ai bien cru ne plus pouvoir utiliser cette application. Aujourd'hui encore il m'arrive de la faire évoluer. DOSBox m'a permis de continuer à l'utiliser et elle fonctionne sans problème. Un grand merci à cette émulateur.
  • VERY useful software for those, who did (and still do) like to play "Good-Old-(DOS/W9#)-Games": - using this emulation software 'eases' the need to refresh old memories with older games you used to enjoy playing. - otherwise, you might just 'admit', that it is "Game Over, Man!" for those good old games - and go watch "Bold and Beautiful" on some streaming site - or 'whatever'. Some PS-#/XBox games are still quite good, though... 😏
  • Love older games
  • I don't know if DosBox will run any of the old networking software like Novell, 3Com, IBM PC Lan, AT&T Starlan, or Banyan Vines, but it runs everything else quite well. Once you find the configuration file's location, it's very easy to edit and customize. It should come bundled with Windows. :)
