Basic DOS operating support is nowadays available online, for example [ http://www.bootablecd.de/fdhelp-internet/en/index.htm ] or [ http://www.vfrazee.com/ms-dos/6.22/help/ ]. That already covers a lot of those 400 pages, I bet. Other topics are covered all over the internet, http://www.drdos.org is a good one. Programming on/for DOS is an entirely different subject. You'd likely start with RBIL (Ralph Brown's Interrupt List) and read into programming languages like Assembly (NASM, TASM, WASM etc), Basic (FreeBASIC), C (Openwatcom, DJGPP) etcetera. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Malware Security Report: Protecting Your Business, Customers, and the Bottom Line.
