win3.11 for MSDOS.

from Win2000 (ish) they removed the DOS entirely, that's why your old games stopped working then

Rapture (00:41:23)
thought so ok

Rapture (00:41:21)
aaah ok

Rapture (00:41:12)
both were 16bit

mirrorbird (00:41:11)
faster. Windows (back then) was a whole layer on top of DOS. it's like you're in DOS and you say "run this DOS program called Windows" which then takes over. so it is doing more work => slower

Rapture (00:41:05)
ah, so more RAM available and other resources?

mirrorbird (00:40:46)
because it ran in DOS, with no Windows loaded

Rapture (00:40:42)
ms dos betta than win3?

Rapture (00:40:15)
but why can doom be faster than slow win3.11 games
