What irq did you use? It's set to.... 9? Or 11?in the network inf Might need to test it with your setting It's supposed to unmount the CD but it's supposed to continue... Hmm This is what I ended up on and everything seems to be stable, dns etc works and no weirdness with login prompt. Everything …

I mostly got through everything just fine. Tested Dos 6.22 + Win3.11 for workgroups I had a section of the install that unmounted the cd and just booted to dos with only smartdrv installed, remounted in VMware player and rebooted and it continued on its merry way. I think this was in between the dos …

Re: MSDOS drive letter issue

Posted on 2024-01-28, 05:20

You can get around this but it is a bit dumb. Create two partitions, 1 that is a scratch disk, say 10MB (D:), and the second is everything else (E:). In Autoexec.bat do this: LOADHIGH C:\DRIVERS\SHSUCDX.COM /D:IDE-CD /L:F /V /C LOADHIGH ASSIGN D:=F: This will assign your CD to F: and then "Assign" …

Re: MSDOS drive letter issue

So I'm setting up a brand new partition on MSDOS and as I already have a primary partition, I have to create an extended one and then a logical one, but for some reason it's giving me the letter D: as the hard drive, instead of E: The problem is that WORMS game (version 1.0) requires CDROM drive to …

Not sure if this will help with the newer video chipsets but I did find this a while ago in relation to vbe issues with newer cards: https://web.archive.org/web/20020619230758/http://unirefresh.demonews.com/videoproblems/ " Videoproblems So, you are trying some of your old dos programs and find out …

I tried DOSLFN. With it loaded, RHIDE crashes at start. So I generated the makefile in RHIDE without DOSLFN loaded, and then again tried to compile it in CLI with "make -f sbemu.mak" after loading doslfn. It doesn't work, it gets confused right at the start. See screenshot. The same thing happens …

Re: USB ISA cards?

Posted on 2022-07-17, 11:44

My main interest is ZIP 750MB (USB only) or ZIP 250MB (USB version) to get working on 486 that has ISA only slots. Current workaround would be to get SCSI ISA card and connect ZIP 250MB to it and hope that ZIP750 vs ZIP250 compatibility works well. The ATAPI version works great on my 386 even …

Just for mounting the ISO's virtually or more complex than that? SHSUCDX suite is a good one. http://adoxa.altervista.org/shsucdx/ Won't get you redbook audio. Love the channel BTW.

Re: Hiding a drive in DOS 7.1?

Posted on 2022-01-12, 14:54

For DOS, let the D: drive get associated to the disk on boot, and then use the assign command to take it back over and mirror something like you cd drive. So in your autoexec: ASSIGN D:=F: Where D is your disk you want to take over and F is where your CD is mapped to. When you are done or before you …

Re: DOS boot up splash screen?

I use this in my DOS Shareware pack. See the reference in the fdconfig.sys and autoexec for how to do it. https://github.com/flynnsbit/DOS_Shareware_MyMenu The openinit.raw file has to be in a very specific format. I think I ended up using the dos version of paint shop to create it. You can download …
