Even More Tinkering With An Older Laptop - MS-DOS & Windows98 With DOS-BOX & PCEm v17 (Dell E5250)

Some more tinkering, checking out running MS-DOS applications with DOSBox and PCEm v17 on the Dell Lattitude E5250
Dell Lattitude E5250 laptop:
Screen 12,5" 1366x768 (WXGA Wide)
RAM 16Gb, DDR3 (standard 8Gb)
CPU Intel Core i5-5300U (2 cores, 4 threads)
HD/SSD 250 Gb (standard 128Gb)
Software:
OS Linux Mint
Wine - 32 and 64 bit Windows
DOSBox
PCEm v17
This laptop had a 5th gen i5 with 2 cores and 4 threads it's not the fastest in the world and trying to get MS-DOS games running on DOS-Box as well as PCEm v17 is more of a challege than using a high end beast of a PC.
This actually is a lot more fun.
DOS-Box as well as PCEm seems to have a bit of a sweet-spot when it comes to 100% emulation and I try to find out what it is.
I also delve into my first experiences with emulation on PC
- The Champ Arcade game ports for PC MS-DOS
- Sparcade Arcade Emulator
- Windows 3.11 with apps
- PC64 C64 emulator
- C64S emulator by Miha Peternel (MS-DOS based C64 emulator)
- Running various games and comparing the performance between DOS-BOX as well as PCEm
OBS was used to capture the footage
Shortcut Video editor was used to edit the video
GIMP was used to creat the title screens
Nothing but this Lattitude E5250 was used here.
...
what might come in yet another video is the following:
PSX - Scene demos, games ?
PS2 - Scene demos, games ?
PSP - Scene demos, games ?
FS-UAE - Scene demos, games ?
