# The emulators/dosbox-x port

## dosbox-x-2025.05.03 – x86 with DOS emulator targeted at playing games

## Description

    DOSBox-X is a fork of DOSBox cross-platform DOS emulator.

    This is a platform for running DOS applications, including emulating the
    environments to run Windows 3.x, 9x and ME and software written for those
    versions of Windows. Moreover, DOSBox-X supports DOS/V and NEC PC-98
    emulations so that you can play DOS/V and PC-98 games with it.

    Compared with DOSBox, DOSBox-X focuses more on general emulation and accuracy.
    The goal of this project is to make a complete emulation package that covers
    all pre-2000 DOS and Windows 9x based system scenarios, including peripherals,
    motherboards, CPUs, and all manner of hardware that was made for PC hardware
    of that time.
