Jim I understand what you mean by a virtual machine because I know what virtual memory is as per Microsoft but for me making a virtual would be just as hard as making Free Dos run. I would much rather be able to run FreeDos from a DVD or CD since I can boot from either. I have my system set to sear

Hi Ron, I know I mentioned it in my off-list email to you earlier this week, but you can boot FreeDOS from CD and use it via LiveCD, but you still have direct access to the hardware and if you do something in FreeDOS without realizing what's going on (disk tools, etc.) you can quickly make your C:

Well I must have done something wrong, which isn't beyond me. I downloaded an image file from somewhere called fdfullcd.iso and using that I burnt a cd. Where can I find the program or the official web site to down load the right version? Well I booted from it but it had boot errors so I had to ste

Reading all the posts I realize that yes I liked DOS and I ran DOS as long as I could, even went to DR DOS when things were looking like Microsoft was going to drop DOS so I ran it as long as I could But I am not oin the league of you folks that get into the guts of th

[Freedos-user] Keyboard Numpad - Dot giving a comma (Keyboard variant ?)

2008-01-20 Thread Fabien Meghazi
Hello again ! I use "keyb be" in my autoexec.bat but it produce a comma instead of a dot when pushing the key between "0" and "enter" on the numpad of a classic extendend 105 azerty (be) keyboard. Is it a keyboard variant ? How can I fix this ? I tried to play with keyb options such as keyb be
