DosBox turbo, DosBox Manager and GamePad review

DosBox turbo, DosBox Manager (a sort of GOG look-alike) and GamePad has been developed by Fishstix.

The program can run on your android phone, ms-dos games and programs or you can program with your favorite dos based programing language. 

DosBox turbo is used as a command line. 

DosBox Manager for a ,,GOG shelf-type shortcuts" style. 

The GamePad gives you a different keyboard for your android system and a d-pad for you to use in game (up, down, left and right).

Cybersphere

Game: Cybersphere

Developer: Clay Hellman

Publisher: PSYCON SOFTWARE

Year: 1996

Genre: 

Players: single hot-seat or vs computer, multiplayer

 

REVIEW :

The game reminds me of Arkanoid, a word which i always forget.

You move a paddle and destroy blocks.

 

For me at least, Cybersphere is more colorfull, has explosions and has a catchy electronic-cyberpunktype music, which you can listen, if you have and acces CYBTUNES.EXE

From 1996, the game is full.

Asus Eee PC Seashell 1015BX netbook - Installing Windows 3.1

 

 

If you have problems in the begining and the external floppy drive doesen't see the floppy diskette, just restart, when you see a General failure error. 

Use the command a: to switch to A, where the floppy is. Use the command setup, to enter Windows 3.1 setup. 

Be sure you insert the floppy all the way in, or, like at the 00:53, it will keep looking for it until it is all the way in. Different floppy diskettes you will have to change.

The bios will still be available after instaling MS-DOS 6.22, by pressing ESC or F1.

Leave bios by default before you format your HDD partition. Regardless if you had Windows 7 etc.  

The bios will still be available after instaling MS-DOS 6.22, by pressing ESC or F1.

Be sure that the netbook battery is full and displays the green light, when installing. Intermitent red light means charging. 

I use a Gembird external floppy disk. 

The error in the beggining is that the system is not found or doesen't exist. If you have problems in the begining and the external floppy drive doesen't see the floppy diskette, just restart. 

A Starting MS-DOS... message will show, at 02:38 

Different floppy diskettes you will have to change.

Press ESC and you will see this. If pressing F1, this is not showned. In SATA, MS-DOS 6.22 will be installed.

I don't need LAN.

 

 

I didn't try out AHCI with Windows 3.1
