A while back I asked 'upgrading', & I had a list of Windows-compatible utilities that needed DOS equivalents. I'm not asking about Win-compatible games, they may be a lost cause. I need a driver for a USB flash drive, & probably one for a broadband modem. (I know ClamWIN has a DOS equivalent, so thanks for that.)Wonder where you asked it, as there's plenty people reading this list, guess we all missed your question perhaps.
http://bretjohnson.us/ has a collection of DOS USB drivers, so most likely for your USB flash drive as well. I don't know how your broadband modem is connected to your computer..most machines have a network card inside, which then is connected to broadband modem by a cable. If this is the case, you'd need to find a so called '(DOS) packet driver' for your network card. Alternatively buy a network card for which a packet driver exists. www.crynwr has a nice collection (though for old cards mostly). If however you got a broadband modem connected by USB or internal to your machine, you might be out of luck.
Plenty of operating systems like distributions of Linux, or use Haiku, ReactOS, DOS flavors, etc. Even Windows 7 should be a decent improvement of Vista, and will be released somewhere this month.I had to use a Vista system (not entirely by choice), & I've had enough.
Any response is appreciated.
hope this helps, Bernd
