    DOS and Dual core processors.
    « on: April 26, 2008, 07:41:42 PM »
    Will DOS run on dual core processors?  If so are there any cautions that need to be observed?  Any comments?

      I have little if any experience with dos, but I don't think it will make any difference what processor is used.

      The processor speed may cause some problems with Dos based 16-bit programs.  See here...

      Good luck & welcome to the CH forums.
