Soundcard emulation in DOS on non-legacy hardware. Possible? (Emulation)

posted by Daniel3D E-mail, Netherlands, 01.11.2022, 10:01

I'am starting to accumulate old hardware that do not have legacy hardware support. So although they seem to run DOS fine you run into problems when running programs and games.

There are products made that bring DOS functionality to windows, And there are products that bring windows resources to DOS.
SO I initially thought that DOS + HX DOS extender and VDMsound could solve some of the issues.
But the pieces do not quite fit.
They also don't solve graphics issues of some old games that use software tricks because hardware support didn't exist (like stunts aka 4D sports driving)

Is it possible to create a tool that can use windows drivers in dos (maybe based on HX dos extender?) Or something that can use DirectX?

That would bring a al lot of now useless machines capable of running DOS.

let me know your thoughts,

regards
Daniel,
