    I still play classics like Commander Keen, Dangerous Dave, Police Quest, Space Quest using DosBox emulator. They don't make games like that anymore! Haven't tried DosBox with Vista yet.

    its strange that you were using 286 in 1997 :rolleyes:
    I was using PIII at that time.

    I remember my 286 PC in 1993 (after that XT which i played for simetime before that) there was Windows 1.3 loaded and 260 MB HDD, i was having 1 MB RAM which immediately upgraded to 4MB in a month.

    .... ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh that good old days we used to play pacman and prince with cheat codes :cool:

    Ah, yeah. The good old red alert times. I remember the times when Warcraft came on the move. Every gamer was playing it like mad.
