Obviously the China DOS Union "distro" of MS DOS 7.10
is not a legal way to use MS DOS! Even when it is more
"convenient" than buying Windows 98 to get MS DOS 7.
Maybe you could tell us what your GameTools debugger breakpoint
problem was in FreeDOS (and solve it) instead of advertising CDU.

Hi!
Well I haven't done anything with it yet, but it will be for games and some

Games, nice old games, cool games the bring some old memories and time
well spent.

GameTools can't find the INT to hook on because its running on a VM
environment.
