Hi.
I urge everyone to try the Floppy version of Alone in the Dark. Game does
not run on FreeDOS.
While investigating i came up to a discussion on dosemu2/fdpp that mentions
that games like Alone in the Dark and Alpha Waves corrupt and resize the
PSP. Somehow MS-DOS versions don't have a problem
Dude... I do have the right hardware from an original IBM XT to a couple
Turbo XT clones, to a Tandy 1000 SL that i had to mod for 220V, to a 286,
386, 486 and Pentium MMX.
I also can use from CP/M-86 to all MS-DOS oficial releases to Windows 98
stripped FAT32 MS-DOS. PC-DOS, DR-DOS, whatever. No

I use a Pentium MMX as my fastest dedicated PC for DOS and i usually
downclock it to 50MHz FSB x 2. If some games still have issues i can use
SETMUL to manipulate Pentium TR4 registers, which allow to disable
exclusively CPU features like Instruction Cache, Data Cache, Branch
Prediction and
What i don't like about A86 is that allows you to do stuff that is actually
"forbidden".
For instance, from what i remember, A86 allows you to do something like:
MOV ES, B800h
