Working Mouse, CD-ROM and Sound Blaster ISA (SB 16/32/64 PnP and sem-Pnp or software configurable cards).For many users it isn't practical to build a dedicated MS-DOS machine but a machine that can handle as many tasks as possible, MS-DOS and Windows games. Creating folders, copying files, USB storage support, Networking machines, Accessing the Internet and only occasionally run a MS-DOS game. The other benefit is that many users find Windows 9x much easier to use. So my personal limit for MS-DOS mode machines is 64 GB. Note that the MS-DOS command line utilities such as FDISK.EXE display incorrect values with anything larger than 64 GB. Windows 98 however can support hard drives up to 128 MB natively. So four 2 GB partitions is as big as it gets. MS-DOS 6.22 will always have a special place in the Retro Community but it has some limitations, the biggest one being that it only supports FAT partitions. Why should I bother? Just use MS-DOS 6.22! This tutorial is to help users who have a working W9x Gaming PC and want to configure a fully working MS-DOS mode with boot menu for memory options such as XMS and EMS, working mouse, CD-ROM drive and Sound Blaster ISA card (SB 16/32/64 PnP and semi-Pnp cards).įor users who are comfortable with building and configuring a W9x machine but encounter challenges when trying to run DOS games.
