Better get to backing up those lo-res titty pics sooner rather than later.
It's my original copies of Quest for Glory. Version 1!
That being the case, you might want to back up your original copies of Quest for Glory, Version 1. Is it the original 1989 EGA release or the 1992 VGA remake? I've never heard of the game before your comment but I read about it on Wikipedia out of curiosity. The game is quite a bit older than me. I find it interesting.
I have both but i have the EGA copy installed. I've been very very carefully copying them from system to system with the disks (and a usb disk drive) as an emergency backup. Fortunately by game 4 they had CDs.
part of why i don't want to do linux. my DOS games! (not serious, i am pretty sure i can find a version of dosbox that works on wine or some easier solution)
Dosbox has a Linux port. I played Phantasmagoria with it. Have you created a .img file of the disk?
probably not. i have just been copying the same files from dos whatever version it was when we got So You Want To Be A Hero (it wasn't quest for glory back then, there was a copyright issue with the name) and ignoring my disks, hoping the disk mice haven't decided to eat the magnets out of the floppy.
