COMPUTERS FOR DCC-MB AND TNT

TNT Homepage


Any PC compatible computer can be used. Any 386, 486 or 586 can be used.

The only condition being that the computer must be booted into DOS. Versions of DOS are available on the internet for free download. Most sites will offer a ZIP file which will unzip into a batch of files which can be used to make an installable version of DOS. Usually DOS 6.0 or later is recommended. I have found 6.22 available from PhatCode to be highly desireable. Also, Microsoft still has DOS 6.22 online as a "step-up" installation.

This can be done as a stand alone computer, or it can be booted from a prepared diskette. This could be accomplished on a LapTop if it were equipped with a parallel port. A standard COM port would allow TV IR remote, also. If it had a standard game port, then even the joysticks throttles could be accomodated.
