First off, would I be asking for a freedos compatible Windows replacement if I could just use ReactOS?
I know about ReactOS, ReactOS is garbage right now. It will probably be garbage for 2-3 more years. There is no reason for an MSDOS Windows replacement to be MSDOS compatible. Freedos doesn't need to be munged to do those things that MS-DOS did that don't make sense. As far as Linux and Wine, Warcraft II BNE does not work under wine. If I had the dos version, I could use dosbox or freedos. Wine is not much better than ReactOS at supporting Windows progams. Under Wine, I have never gotten sound for example. On a less than 1 Ghz machine, who wants to run Wine? Need I remind people, you cannot legally run MS-DOS anymore. It's not something you can legally install to a system that never had MS-DOS. MS-DOS is not freeware, that's why Freedos exists after all. I've tried to talk to the ReactOS community to find out when this or that will be fixed or what is currently being worked on, all it does is make people angry. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
