🪟 Why Include Windows 7 64-Bit?
Windows 7 acts as the ideal bridge between modern hardware and retro computing.

Benefits include:

🎮 Better support for retro launchers, utilities, archive tools, patches, and transfer software
💾 Easier handling of USB drives, ISOs, external storage, and large file collections
🧰 Improved driver support for modern hardware
⚡ More stable platform for running demanding emulators such as 86Box
📦 Easier management of retro software libraries and backups
🖥 Better desktop usability and multitasking than Windows XP

For many retro enthusiasts, Windows 7 is the perfect “support OS” alongside XP and DOS-era systems.

🪟 Windows XP Retro Gaming Ready
Windows XP remains one of the best gaming operating systems ever released for PC.

Perfect for:

🎮 Early 2000s PC games
🧰 Legacy and industrial software
🎧 Older drivers and peripherals
💿 Physical CD-ROM installs
🕹 Native DirectX gaming

This PC is designed as a dedicated offline XP gaming and legacy software machine.

⚠ Important Internet & Network Information

Windows XP and Windows 7 are both legacy operating systems that are no longer supported by Microsoft and no longer receive security updates.

These systems are intended primarily as OFFLINE retro gaming and legacy software machines.

For security and preservation reasons:

❌ LAN / Ethernet networking is disabled and non-functional under Windows XP
❌ Internet use under Windows XP is not supported or recommended
❌ Technical support is not provided for putting the XP installation online

Windows 7 can technically access the network if required, however we still strongly advise keeping the system offline wherever possible.

The safest and recommended method for transferring software, patches, ISOs, drivers, and game files is via:

✔ USB memory sticks
✔ External USB hard drives / SSDs
✔ Burned CDs or DVDs
✔ Offline local storage

You are of course free to install your own USB Wi-Fi adapter or manually reconfigure networking under Windows 7 if you wish, however this is entirely at your own risk and outside the intended use of these systems.

These machines are designed to recreate the classic offline PC gaming experience as safely, reliably, and authentically as possible.

💾 Includes MS-DOS 6.22 + Windows 95 via 86Box
(Authentic Late-90s Hardware Configuration)

This is not DOS running inside a window.

It is a complete late-90s virtual gaming PC running:

✔ MS-DOS 6.22
✔ Windows 95 OSR2
✔ Period-correct hardware configuration

Configured system inside 86Box:

💻 CPU: Intel Pentium 90MHz
🖥 Graphics: S3 ViRGE / DX
🎮 3D Accelerator: 3DFX Voodoo 2
💾 Memory: 32MB RAM
🗄 Hard Drive: 10GB IDE HDD
📀 IDE CD-ROM drive
💿 Floppy controller + drives (A: / B:)
🎶 Sound Blaster AWE32 configured (A220 I7 D1 H5 P330 T6)

This setup is ideal for:

• Doom / Duke Nukem 3D / Blood
• Quake & GLQuake
• Tomb Raider
• Carmageddon
• MechWarrior 2
• Command & Conquer (DOS & Windows 95)
• Early Windows 95 3D titles

Windows 95 recreates the full classic late-90s desktop experience — Start Menu, DirectX gaming, proper driver installs, and true 3DFX acceleration exactly as originally intended.

💾 Install Games & Software From
✔ Real CDs / DVDs using the PC’s optical drive
✔ CD images (.ISO / .BIN)
✔ Floppy disk images (.IMG / .IMA)
✔ Real floppy disks via optional USB floppy drive

No artificial shortcuts.
Just proper media handling as DOS and Windows 95 expect.

✔ Configured HIMEM & EMM386 memory management
✔ Set correct Sound Blaster IRQ/DMA
