This is intentional since DOS games even on a 486 can run too fast and DOSBox was designed when 9x\Windows 2000 were mainly used and XP was still a POS (before SP2). The official version of DOSBox supports a host OS of Windows 95/NT4 and above with Active Desktop and 386 (I want to stay official DOSBox is compiled with 386, if not then >=Pentium Pro) and above. but modern computers don't let me use my beautiful all-beige computer with 1997 CRT monitor so I want to try this first! Reply 1 of 7, by DosFreak I can't disable any caches on the BIOS of my Dell's 440bx-based motherboard, so I still need to try the bunch of those slowdown programs, but many report stuttering problems with the software solutions so I thought I'd look into DOSBox as well.Īnd yes, I know, I know, "just run it on a modern computer". Here's a couple of the games which won't run for me:īarbarian 1987, Jazz the Jackrabbit 1994, Silent Service ii 1990, Wing Commander 1990 My computer is from 2000, with a video card from 2002 (GeForce 4 ti 4600), so besides the one outlier below we're talking about a 10-13 year difference.and DOSBox was first released in 2002 so I thought that this might just be possible. Is this possible? I'm slowly going through my list of games and there's a very small number that I can't run on my P3 700mhz (soon to be upgraded to a 1Ghz Coppermine/100mhz bus) because it's too fast.
