Re: v17 compatibility & bug list
Thank you for your efforts and dedication, Sarah. I have a lot of fun with the newest version. :) One thing I noticed is that as soon as I start MS-DOS on WIndows 98 SE, the emulator freezes.

Re: PCem v15 Sound Issue
I mean... yeah, of course it could be a problem with the real hardware as well. ^^; I just wanted to make SarahWalker aware of this. That's it.

Re: PCem v15 Sound Issue
@SarahWalker: While we are on this subject of sound problems... there is this one windows game called Obsidian (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obsidian_(1997_video_game) that has some problems with Windows Sound System (Sound Blaster 128 works, though).

Re: PCEm V14 great implementations and future capability suggestions
Antoher suggestion: When I want to change hardware, I have to go to Misc, Machine, Configure and again Machine. Is it possible to add another Option (picture) or at least a key combination so this process is a little bit faster?

Re: I tested ~100 DOS games (v14)
Unfortunately, this didn't change anything. Strange bug. Thanks anyway.
Edit:
Is it maybe because of the fn key on my laptop?

Re: I tested ~100 DOS games (v14)
Thanks for testing! I found another bug:
When I toggle fullscreen (Ctrl+ALT+Page down) and go back to window mode again, I can't activate the menu in sam and max (F1) anymore. Can you replicate this behaviour, too?

Re: PCem is still open (background process)
Thanks for your answer JosepMa.
It's still open as background process? Are you sure? I never have had this problem and I start a lot of programs via batchfile. That's the reason why I reported this problem in the frist place.The same happens even if I use notepad.exe in place of pcem.

PCem is still open (background process)
When I open pcem with a batchfile (like "start /b PCem.exe --config ".\DOS.cfg") and close DOS 6.22 with X (not shutdown), pcem is still open in the taskmanager (background process). Is it possible, to fix this problem?

Re: 266MMX slower than P70
I'm pretty sure that's because your CPU is weak and can't emulate Pentium 266 MMX at full speed.

DOSBox vs. PCem – What plays DOS games better/more accurate?
I know it's hard to compare those two emulators, because DOSBox doesn't require actual BIOSes and doesn't use cycle accurate CPU timings. But how good is the dos emulation on pcem right now? What's better/worse compared to DOSBox? What would you recommend?
