This is an update to my 2015 video when things were quite dire.... But thanks to SBEMU among other things, we can finally play DOS games the way they were meant to be.
You may ask : Why not use Dosbox anyway ? Well the thing is, later DOS SVGA games at higher resolutions are particularly CPU intensive... whereas here they run fine (mostly).
But now that the sound situation is sorted out, i still have to deal with other unrelated issues : BIOS bugs according Legacy USB and other memory related issues as well... I do have a more appropriate PC though, so i may try that one instead. But if you just need to use a small thin PC, this is a perfect solution in my opinion ! I would dare to say even better than those old HP with built in soundblaster compatibility (although they are still very good).
AHCICD (needed to make DVD drives work on a modern PC, make sure to either replace it over UDVD2.SYS or change the batch file):
