如何更换CD

有些游戏玩到一半要换cd,请问如何操作?

Very hard to use

I read dos apps but it is very inconsistent. Very hard to find the right dos packages. Could be apple’s iPod fault It keeps making copies. Of the iDOS package!

Super!

Auf iPad mit norton Commander kommt richtiges Retro feeling auf.
Folders Mount ist richtig gut.
Schwierig ist es wenn man mehrere Disketten .img hat und davon installieren möchte aber 95% der dos Spiele laufen auf Anhieb :-)
Ein Traum für mich. Da kann man die Erinnerung aufleben lassen

Fantástica!

Una joya…

Excellent implementation

I’m using Dosbox a lot for mostly nostalgic purposes. And was very surprised and excited to discover iDOS, never thought someone will get it running on iOS. I like the implementation, mounting directories from iCloud Drive is excellent feature, I usually mount a folder with my documents as drive E:. The video scaler, though, not perfect, works well, and it’s great that the 4:3 aspect ratio is supported. Wasn’t able to get an image of windows 95 running on it, but I blame the image, would have to bake my own. Highly recommended, and greatly appreciated. Thanks for the hard work of porting it to iOS
