Sounds painful. I once had an old 486/66 with 24M RAM running 98se, got used very occasionally as a backup machine. 16 colour graphics or something like that. It got virus scanned all of once. It took over 15 minutes to even begin to scan.

That really depends on the BIOS of the machine; I've got a few DOS
machines out there with USB keyboards.

(Don't use USB mice on DOS machines nowadays, so can't say.)
