Regarding laptops: Power management might be an issue. Worst case is the CPU running at full speed sucking all energy from the battery in under 30 minutes. (Also giving you a lot of noise from the fan.) Depending on the laptop's hardware have a look at: - FDAPM and/or IDLEHALT (<http://wiki.freedos.org/wiki/index.php/FDAPM> - (my tiny) EIDL (<http://www.bttr-software.de/products/eidl/>) - HLTIDLE (<https://pcdosretro.github.io/hltidle.htm>) - DOSidle (<https://www.sac.sk/download/utilmisc/dosid210.zip>) Cheers, Robert -- BTTR Software https://www.bttr-software.de/ DOS ain't dead https://www.bttr-software.de/forum/ _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
