Working on a VectorMame cab, but I'm not sure which version of dos to go with (or where to even find it).

Does anyone have any insight into this?

Thanks!

I'm running WIN98 in pure DOS mode.  Looks like copies are still getting a fair amount of money on ebay  ???  but i like to be able to go to Windows for file management.  Everytime i have to relearn one more of the DOS commands, something else is forced out the other side of my brain...   :dizzy:  Maybe you've got an old license sitting around somewhere?
