DOS ain't dead

I have suspected that DOSBOX-X inside HX inside DOS might be a solution, but how well does it actually work? After all, DOSBOX also is a form of emulator and I am not sure whether the sound drivers of HX support enough AC97 and HDA.

You mention some Ruslan Starodubov sound drivers, which you describe as working on the same hardware as MPXPLAY? Where are they offered? Which configuration do you use to load them before or as part of HX?

How fast is the emulation? I could imagine DOS inside DOSBOX inside HX inside DOS being somewhat slow? Does it work for most games? I would guess if it does work at all, it does work for most games indeed Please provide more details. Thank you!

Also, question to everybody, which other apps apart from MPXPLAY work directly with modern sound chipsets? A few modern games have been mentioned, but others have asked for more details about where to find the right version of those, so I would like to join that question
