The x86 edition of Windows 7 was the last revision of Windows capable of running classic 16-bit games and software. It's also so much easier to run and maintain than Windows 9x/NT/2000 or even XP. I'll need to explore this further for my retro collection! 😉

@dfx God, "upgrading" my very dos friendly Pentium 4 with a soundblaster live to a 64 bit win 7 igpu all-in-one in 2009 sucked so much. I suddenly couldn't play all my old games, and newer games ran like shit.

@Tristan Yeah... that's why I love the 86Box emulator so much! You can build a virtual Pentium DOS PC with a Soundblaster 16 inside your modern computer and it really works so well!
