Hello from Czechia, I run makerspace in the past and have 86Duino EduCake,
a smart breadboard including Vortex86. It can run DOS and Windows. Only
disadvantage is a lack of VGA output, so it can do only SSH.
I second that Vortex86 choice.
By the way Win XP and Win 7 won’t boot non ACPI bios,
Yes, or if you want to have HTTPS in WinXP, you can set up retro https
proxy gateway on 2nd machine (Linux router, Raspberry Pi or newer Windows
7/10 device, MacOS etc). I recommend WebOne project:

Only hard reset or shutdown would break it. Something like while (true) {}

user will ignore it few times :-D

Hi, perfect! Good news!
So, in the future, I could modify this RLoader DOS game browser library to
include some IRC chat with chatbot and people:

have only OPTi sound card that supports it (

I missed that. In the e-mail there was June 20. I was in a rush and read

instructions. Only BlueJeans. No URL. By the way, here in Europe they say:
I use DOSBOX-X and you can notice they use completely different fonts and

anti-aliased native app using HiDPI. Therefore this is something completely
separate from DOS and it is Windows based font rendering feature. But that

Hi Eric, good question! From what I understand, he cannot boot SATA drive
because BIOS does not see SATA driver during boot prompt due to add-on
controller card. If not, then my answer was not correct.

3) On old PC I found good Sata PCI that are PCI 2.1 compliant. Im on phone,

It should be doable even on 486 and Pentium 1.

browsers would be nice:

I guess there is no good web browser that would actually work (only Lynx

I have tested Quake 1 with audiocd on UDVD2 in the current Freedos RC and
can confirm it is working with UDVD2 perfectly. The common mistake some
users make is that upon fresh install, some sound card drivers have CD
audio muted and they need to run sb16set (mixer utility) to set up the

Thanks for the info. I will test more combinations and get back. Yes, I
have seen the reboot commands, so it should be fine. I try restart after
leaving the app, simply from command line.
None of the apps provide any docs that they would require OAKCDROM. I guess
it will work with other Windows
Hi, I got it fixed in FreeDOS! Thanks for explaining the level 1 and level

The floppy disc of Windows 98 contains about 4 different CD-ROM drivers. I
went with the first oneL OAKCDROM.SYS
These are the results:
1) UDVD2 + SHSUCDX = NOT WORKING
2) OAKCDROM + SHSUCDX =
Hi, thank you. That comment on Phil's video by Lukas Satin - that's me.
Phil has even FreeDOS starter pack, but it is for FreeDOS 1.2. I tried it.
The driver VIDECDD is not working at all. It will not find my CD-ROM drive.
Perhaps because 486 bios cannot find the CDROM. But driver such as MSCDEX
I told u I can install from cd. So list is working. Only launching game
with some copy protection will not find cd. Some game will find cd in
freedos. I sent screenshots of games that do not work. It is like 50% of
games from cd.

Guys, I built regular 486DX2 66Mhz. I would not be that guy and put PCI
