DOS games were so bad I eventually had to make boot disks for each of them.
Some needed EMS, some needed XMS, some needed the extended lines for my wavetable card. Its too much work trying to get multiple games running under one setup. A disk for each was eventually necessary.
And since DOS loaded damn near instantly it wasn't a big deal.
My OS didn't load that fast again until Windows 10 on a SSD.
By the spring of 1962, the first computer game was complete. Russell considered selling the game. But the only customer would have been Digital Equipment, because his game could run only on.
The google AI forum bots are definitely getting better, but it seems they are having conversations between themselves, but across forums and topics. Really strange.
I remember issues of having to identify which port the sound card was in, or the video card, within the software. I think as late as Warcraft II? and it seemed somewhat random, whether you would have these issues with an install and not another--I guess that's really a common driver problem?
You're weird.
