Music? I heard it in an obscure game I reviewed called pac guy.

Thanks a lot for this. I was setting it up on my android phone and what you did worked well with small alterations.

You are a freakin GOD my friend. I am not the least bit computer savvy, but it only took me about an hour to figure out how to do this correctly. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

this is damage your mac?

@megatron995 Not at all! MS-DOS and Windows 3.1 programs will only have access to the "mounted" area, in other words, the special Mac folder that contains all of your Windows 3.1/DOS files.

@madden8023 Not sure what you're trying to say about M$ Virtual PC (VMWare Player is much better anyways), but "free" abandonware is illegal. I've already commented on abandonware for this video, and I'm not going to provide any sort of download links for complete copyrighted software no matter how old unless my purpose is for archiving and not for distribution. Sorry.

its is legal to put a link in the Description cuz its Abandedware

[retronuggetdev]

@theanthony345 As much as I hate to say it, it's still illegal. Micro$oft still holds all patents and copyrights towards Windows 3.1, and will continue to do so for at least another ~70 years, or until every original developer and publisher of Windows 3.1 dies, then we wait another 80 years or so after that. I'd love to post the download links, but the concept of "all abandonware is instantly free" is a total myth. Sorry.
