DOS menu system

[The_Unbeliever]

Anybody used Edgmenu before?

A small, quick and intuitive DOS menu system, which works quite well. Plus it's got a cool screensaver.

This works quite well on 386 and 486 class computers (<95MHz clock speed) as the screensaver tend to speed up with CPU speed.

PM if you want it.

Ah damn. I have a whole buch of old dos games that I want to play but vista wont let me, and those programs that emulate them take so long to launch them.

the good old days of DOS. I remember making my own menus with those ALT+n codes. I used to spend hours & hours making my menus.

You can run this in your DOS emulator, and use it to start off the various other games.

Or you can run a DOSbox frontend and do the same thing.

 

[The_Unbeliever]

ahhh... loom... had the pleasure of finishing it a while ago.

 

[TheBossMan]

LOL I had a similar looking menu program on my old 386

At least Norton Commander still works on Vista and Windows 7
