and that is why we have to use vmware player or virtualbox to play the
old games in emulated old systems.

the issue jakob is 64 bit windows will not run 16 bit dos games or 16
bit anything because 64 bit cpus can't process 16 bit data!
Ms took dos emulation out of windows 64 bit which is why at least on
the systems with 4gb or less the maximum the 32 bit standard can
handle that I am running a 32 bit os.
dos games run to an extent with nvda its not perfect but they do run.
I have 7 though so who knows.
as security gets more and more harder to handle some of these older
programs may not run as well as they used to.

Think actually works a bit better, in terms of screen reading in the
dos prompt if just launch windows, open it's rendition of terminal
window, make sure am in root of C: drive, and run ASAP from within
there before running game.

so after you launched windows3.1 you went into the dos prompt option
which brought back asap and then run tenpin?

OK, checked, and did have tenpin from personal computing, or
something like that, here in my CD iso, and when launched it from
just the command prompt, and chose sound card, it did nothing the
first time, and then on second try, started trying to work, but
seemed to lock up, but, when then rebooted, and launched windows
first, and then ASAP from within that ms dos terminal, and then
launched tenpin, and chose sound card, the music, and sound
effects, etc. did play/work. Played a couple of bad ball rolls to
double check, and sound effects, music clips, etc. all seemed fine..?
Not sure if that's the right game, and did also hear a slight
stutter effect during music clip playback, but, that might eitehr
be the way it would have sounded, or else it's due to virtual
hardware overload, or something...<smile>
Stay well
This was a quick little test, but, am pretty sure that's exactly

you could install tenpin96 the bowling game or one of jim's dos
games like trucker for dos. it also has sound.

OK, just tried both firing up ASAP before launching windows, and
launching it from inside the MS dos terminal window launched from
within windows 3.1, and both times I can use windows, via window
eyes, and then use the command prompt window from within windows,
but ASAP only lets me hear what's automatically popping up on
screen, and screen review keystrokes don't seem to work, and
wouldn't know what to try to see how sound is working - sorry.

Josh, does the sound blaster cooperate if you open a dos
terminal window from within windows 3.1?
Not sure contents of terminal window would get read to you
unless you had launched ASAP before firing up windows, using
window eyes - primary issue there when tried that out a bit was
their control panels interfering with each other since they
both seem to get invoked using ctrl + \, but, don't think they
stop each other from operating otherwise.

the very best reliable access to dos is the vmware dos virtual
machine. it works 100% perfect, except no sound blaster in
dos. but sound blaster in windows.

Hi Jacob,
That is my guess as well. The problem with emulators and virtual
machines is there is sometimes a problem with accessing
hardware, and
the problem only gets worse with virtual hardware like these
virtual
com ports. That is why I think getting reliable access to Dos
is going
to be tricky.
Cheers!
