As I’m coding DOSContainer, more and more games turn up on my hard drive in a playable form and I want to share those with the world. I decided to rip them out of the actual project’s Git repository and just host them on my website. If you’re looking for the current list, look no further because this is it and I will be updating this page as time goes on.

The table below lists bootable virtual hard drive images for use with the MiSTer FPGA project’s AO486 PC simulator core. The disk images are meant to make the old MS-DOS PC as accessible as a console, providing players a way to enjoy these old games without having to learn the cranky bits (and there are many) of the MS-DOS platform. Download the ZIP-file, uncompress it, upload the resulting VHD to your MiSTer, attach it to the core’s primary hard disk controller and reset the core. That’s all!
