Compatibility and quality problems aside, WinNT+'s NTVDM only supports (subset
of) DOS programs designed for the standard IBM PC with limited hardware
configurations. On the other hand, DOSBox(-X) goes way beyond this, for
example, allowing to emulate another full DOS-based PC,

The apparent problems are the compatibility and quality. There are huge
differences between Windows 9x's MS-DOS prompt and (32-bit) Windows XP's NTVDM.
Even OS/2's MVDM did a much better job than XP's

Hi Anton,
DOSBox-X's Windows XP support has been there for a long time, which will
benefit those who use it (original DOSBox also supports it). I think the
pixel-perfect mode patch which you implemented still works too, so that those
who use Windows XP (or higher) can enjoy it as well.

Not sure, I think?? they still provide XP-compatible versions

Hi Gabriele,
Yes, most 32-bit Windows builds of DOSBox-X can run on Windows XP. DOSBox-X
also has DOS builds for running in DOS itself (so that you can emulate a
different DOS system for example). The most recent version of DOSBox-X is now
0.84.2 / 2022.08.0, which (among other things) added
