Windows 95 with Dosbox does have its limitations. I will highlight them all.
1. There is no CD or optical drive support. You can't play games that run off of CDs, or games that need CDs to run.
2. The 3d accelerator driver may or may not work. It isn't perfect, it buggy.
3. Using a emulator within another emulator is very slow. You are running a Dos emulator on top of a operating system, and this could result in performance penalties. You may need a very powerful computer to run it.
4. The mouse does not work if you run Windows 98 on Windows 10.
Programs and files you will need.
A. Dosbox 0.74 @ [ Ссылка ]
B. Dosbox Daum @ [ Ссылка ]
C. Dos 6.22 img file @ [ Ссылка ]
D. Drivers for Windows 95 @ [ Ссылка ]
E. A copy of Windows 95. If you have a copy great, if you don't you can buy it on ebay, Amazon, or a computer show. You can Google it, and you might find an iso somewhere.
