I'm looking for the version of MS DOS 5 that would have shipped with my Magnavox 386SX computer (shown here).

Does anyone have it? I've found Phillips versions of MS DOS but I don't know if they were the same.

Yes it used a Philips branded DOS, here is a youtube video from 2013 of a mostly factory original: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSbbu4QyKM0

Hate posting a reply and then have to edit it because it made no sense 😁 First computer was an IBM 3270 workstation with CGA monitor. Stuff: https://archive.org/details/@horun

Does the back of your Magnavox look like this picture ? Just curious.
I found Philips branded DOS 4 but not DOS 5. If you found Philips DOS 5 can you PM me a link ???

does anyone have any of the custom programs that work. Specifically ive been looking for the app to control the turbo speed setting rather than having to use the bios.
I thought i found it one point but the speed.com complains error message.
i have the 386 sx 16 cpu.
