Yoghoo: As pointed out already, just move the device driver around to get the drive letter that you'd like. That doesn't work in (my?) case. The cdrom gets a drive letter in the autoexec.bat. So after the config.sys. I already put it all the way at the bottom of the config.sys but it always uses …

Works great after some hiccups. Only problem is that it takes the CD-ROM drive letter as that's assigned later in the autoexec.bat. Would be nice if it wouldn't need a config device driver at all but that would probably not be possible. :) Also would like to see the ip address as well when starting …

Very nice! Will definitely try this soon. Will also look at some Windows tools for manipulating those images. If I have some tips I will let you know.

Does the same problem also exists with other kind of USB drives? Some retro pc's I have don't want to boot if I have an USB flash drive inserted for example.

I have an Asus V8420/128M and an MSI G4Ti4200-TD64. I'll need a copy of nvflash but I can dump the roms from them if they'll help Those are NV25 cards as far I can see.

The problem with VLB controllers is the drivers only support hard drives up to 420mb. I think if you use a CF card and don’t load the VLB Drivers you might be able to get around this limitation I'm using a VLB controller on 486 with a CF card. It has multiple 2Gb partitions. With or without drivers …

Nice improvements. Especially the WindowsUpdateRestored redirect. Small question: is there also a WebOne.0.16.0.win-x86.full.zip for Linux (not deb or rpm based) planned? It will run barebones on my Asustor after installing dotnet but misses the convert executable for example. Or do you know when …

I thought it was an easy task to choose a video card for my 1 Ghz Pentium III Windows 98SE pc. But I found the 3DMark results a bit inconclusive: ATI Radeon 9600 XT 99:6370 01:5520 NVIDIA GeForce 2 GTS 99:6587 01:3028 The older GTS is unexpectedly a bit faster with 3DMark 99. And as expected the XT …

Updated the BIOS on my T40 to 3.23 then replaced the old 1.5GHz with a Dothan 1.7GHz. Replaced the BIOS battery and added a mini-PCI wireless card (BCM943224). Unfortunately, it's whitelisted so will have to dig up after a workaround. Any suggestions, much appreciated. Search for no-1802.com. …

Thanks for all the advice, I'll just go with Norton Utilities v6.0 I think, as that seems to be contemporary with MS-DOS 5.0 and also happens to be what I remember using with my 486 at the time.. And it also seems to support 8086/88 as well :) Great choice. I use an older version as it's a lot …
