Priority

Previous  Top  Next

Here you can configure the priority with which DOSBox runs.


Windows gives a program a certain priority. The higher this priority the more CPU time the program gets resulting in a speed boost. DOSBox is very CPU intensive so this will effect performance.

You can change two settings here:

1.

You can set the priority of DOSBox when it's active (when you're playing a game).

2.

You can set the priority of DOSBox when it's inactive.

That's pretty much all there is to it. If DOSBox gets unstable when you select a certain priority, lower DOS Box's priority a notch and see what happens.
