    Only because I selected IRQ 5 and DMA 7. Thank goodness my soundcard was Soundblaster 16 compatible!

    I was just playing with Warcraft II on my vintage PC the other day. I’m still surprised how well a SVGA MS-DOS game ran on my 486 back in the day.

    Was sincerely hoping this would somehow link to a clip of that. Memories unlocked of playing Warcraft 2 in my high school newspaper classroom with all of the computers linked via Appletalk-- the printer-sharing network. And free to get away with because WC2 was one of the few games that had both PC and MAC versions on the same disc.
