If you want to use CF chips instead of a harddrive.
I'd recommend Komputerbay chips sold on Amazon.
They aren't marked internally as removable like most.
Currently I'm using 32 gig to run dos. Hard to find anything
smaller now. You can run win 7 on them if you want.

It's apparently blocking the FreeDOS USB booted setup from making any writes to
IDE, after initially blocking it from detecting there's a drive there at all.
What would be nice is if I could get one of these thin clients in the hands of
someone who can check it out in depth to figure out what

Writing to MSRs? Do you really think that's what Quentin did? I
I just tried installing FreeDOS 1.2 Lite from a 512 meg USB drive onto a WYSE
S30. Result? Failure.
It boots and launches the setup. First is says there's no fixed disk, then is
says drive D: is not partitioned. So I have it partition and reboot.

The CNC control software has to have EMS. Without it, it can't use any more
than low memory. It's *old* software, capable of running on a 1981 vintage 5150
IBM PC. So I would assume it knows nothing of newer EMS types with their fancy
features. If only Light Machines, then Intelitek, had

Some thoughts...
The storage is an IDE Flash Disk, AKA Disk On Module. It has a 44 pin
female header connector, same electrical interface as a 2.5" IDE hard
drive. They're available dirt cheap in sizes from 64 megabytes to 2
gigabytes, not so cheap in 4 and 8 gigabytes...
You can also use a

Hi Greg,
I don't need anything complicated for DOS, just configuring the 128
meg RAM for as much EMS as possible because the old software I want to
run uses EMS not XMS, and USB support for reading files from flash
drives. Getting the Realtek AC97 sound and Realtek LAN working would
be nice,

I'm attempting to get some DOS onto a WYSE Sx0 thin client. The problem is
right after the OS starts to load from the IDE flash module, the BIOS steps in
and hides the IDE controller. So it comes up missing operating system.
