The FreeDOS Project Reviews

It's pretty neat and I like how the whole project conceptually was born out of the same frustrations my Dad had around the same time with software compatibility between Windows NT 3.5 and Windows 3.1/95 working as a system administrator when I was young. I also remember my father messing around in QBasic and the fun programs he'd make for me and my sister, so MS-DOS always was a fascination of mine growing up and it's cool that there is a legitimate way to use something similar that isn't just an emulator, but its own fully functional operating system.

It was good.But there are some problems in 1.4 version.Because a lot of the apps in the apps folder from version 1.3 are gone in version 1.4,so I think it's really necessary to add it back after version 1.5 comes out.And I hope this suggestion can be accepted.Thank You:)

rlly good to use

good

SHOULD BE A PHENOMENAL!

It is great for old games!!!! I need help because I can not run my text602 software. It is czech text editor. It writes me an error. Also when I am installing programs with fdimples I must boot with hard drive then put cd in my cd ram and then run fdimples. It is Great.

forever like it !!!

I have kept FreeDOS on a partition for years. It is adequate to play most DOS games. I have numerous old tools that were written for DOS. It handles modern hardware much better than the original DOS. Have not been able to run any Win3.1 games on the shell. Needs information on what is working, and what is not, as I cannot tell if my problems are due to my setup, inexperience with it, or if the code is not completed. I need to compile something for DOS too, and have not figured that out.

I will try this project as soon as I can, thanks arsoftware25

I love it.

It works!!

It is a fantastic little tool if a bit rough around the edges. But it brings back memories and those are good memories.

It is a worthy competitor to DOSBox. Competition is a good thing and I am always happy to be able to play Commander Keen!

It is a fantastic old school that brings back a flood of memories. But it is also a great tool to learn. It is clunky but it is beautiful.

Bring back memories, but in some situations it helped me to work on broken pc to restore OS :)

Excellent for Wolfenstein 3D, that's all said

You don't need an emulator. You don't need anything else! This is perfect. Oh sweet, sweet nostalgia.

FreeDOS is still a great and useful project for legacy system recovery work.

FreeDOS is easily the best DOS available. :)

Good project

Very good.
