Jayden, would you please read my questions and his comments again and maybe
consider sending him the same e-mail. But yes I never helped you myself, so I
understand...
Our questions were very simple (I think) and I received many comments from some
people here on how us customers don't know how computers or french and
international laws work but not much about FreeDOS itself. Luckely others here
tried to answer and confirmed that FreeDOS is very likely not the cause of any
boot issue (thanks to them).
So again : is any FreeDOS dev or user here able to say how to check if yes or
no a computer
does have FreeDOS inside or should I trust Asus on words because FreeDOS
can't be seen or used in a laptop ?

Teddy,I am going to ask this again.Please stop putting other community members
down.Rugluxio has helped me a few times,so he doesn't just sit there.If you
have a problem with Rugluxio,then do not converse with him.It is sad that I
should be saying this,but let's keep our focus on our ideas.This is a
development community for an OS,not a forum for arguing people.If you put
another member down again,I will go a step further.Thank you for your
consideration.

I think you either misunderstood the ASUS rep, the ASUS rep
misunderstood you, or the ASUS rep doesn't know what he's talking
about. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if the ASUS rep was just
saying things to try to end the support call. I had to deal with
them recently to try and figure out why a serial port bracket I
bought for my motherboard wasn't working.
Me: My serial port isn't working. What's the pinout on the
motherboard so I know if it's a motherboard problem or a problem
with my bracket?
Them: I don't know. You should try updating your BIOS or buy
another bracket.
Me: Which kind of bracket? The manual doesn't have the pinout, so
how can I know if I'm buying the right bracket?
Them: Sorry, we don't have the pinout information.
Me: Nevermind, I just rewired my own bracket to the next most common
alternative pinout and it's working now.
So yeah, ASUS reps don't seem to actually know a lot about the
products they're supporting.

So... in this motherboard there's no DOS at all...
does anybody know how I could check for sure whether FreeDOS is
in Asus actual laptops or not ?
All of you, when you use FreeDOS, how do you "see" it is FreeDOS
and not another DOS that is running, how do you see the version
number ?
I begin to wonder if it really is in those laptops or the Asus
representative who put the blame on it just knew about old
motherboards (the same way they sent us an EeePC procedure to
update the BIOS).
