Sadly though that's all it seems to do because the next step in FRACTINT is to select a video mode and all the options I've tried so far just makes FRACTINT unresponsive
...(Fun times when I learned Assembler to write my own fractal generator...)
waaaay beyond me!
If I remember rightly I first got FRACTINT from a PC magazine cover disk (remember when they were a thing?) Even on a PC with no HDD / only two 1.44 MB floppy drives, an Intel 286 CPU with no co-processor (remember when they were a thing?) that I think ran at a clock speed of 10 MHz, and only 1 MB RAM, it produced the Mandelbrot set in less than a minute.

Thanks for directing me here. I learned a couple things.For one, I had never heard of fractals before. I also checked out vDOS. It presents the same problem for me that other programs that run on a Windows machine does. Is if I installed it, I still would not be able to access my 3 1/2" external drive on that computer to load my DOS files. That computer does not see that drive except if I could start from it and then go to DOS on the C: drive.
