Very good (software I guess), excellent. It was of great help, but it would also be a good idea if you publish boot disks for other operating systems, not only for the ones from Microsoft; for example Novell Netware, Linux, Mac, etc. Thanks, good luck.

Muy bueno, excelente.. Es de mucha ayuda, pero tambien estaria bueno que publicaran Boot Disks para otros Sistemas Operativos, no solamente para los de Microsoft.; por ejemplo para Novell Netware, Linux, Mac, etc. Gracias, suerte

Re: MS-DOS Boot Disk Download

That's because it's an iso file. This is not for floppys.

Re: MS-DOS Boot Disk Download

Re: MS-DOS Boot Disk Download

okay, so this if fine if you have a windows box. I don't so how about providing a .img file as well?

Re: MS-DOS Boot Disk Download

But there is one! It's packed inside the .EXE and it's an .IMA file, same concept as .IMG files really. You can extract the .IMA from the .EXE using software such as WinRAR by right clicking and selecting Extract Here (WinRAR only). It will give an error extracting, but everything still works.

Re: MS-DOS Boot Disk Download

I am working on providing the actual .IMG file as well as a zip for all of these disks. This should hopefully be completed in a few weeks.

Re: MS-DOS Boot Disk Download

can you please tell me how to download and make a boot disk?what kind of disk do i need?can i use a cd-r disk?

Re: MS-DOS Boot Disk Download

Just click on one of the links, and when the download window pops up, click on SAVE, and save it on your computer. Then, right click on the boot file, goto properties, and select your operating system in the compatibility tab. After that, double click the program to open it. Click OK and it should start making the boot file on your floppy disk. It would also be a good idea to bookmark this page to download a different boot file, should the first one not work on your system when restarting it. My best guess, is the newer your system is, the higher version you'll want to download. So say like your system was a 1997 windows 95 or 98, you'd probably want to download one like Dos5.0. I hope this was of some help for you.

Re: MS-DOS Boot Disk Download

And no, a CD-R probably would not work. If your to try though, might I suggest using a cd-RW, so as to not waste an entire CD on a 218k-919k file.

Re: MS-DOS Boot Disk Download

Is it possible to receive a disk by mail. I am not sure I could download the DOS disk on my newer computer (2000 XP Home) onto a 720K disk. I need the 720K disk to use as a boot disk for my old work computer. I do not know what happened to it in traveling, but it comes on and simply says to insert a system file. Can you help me? I will gladly pay for the shipping.

Re: MS-DOS Boot Disk Download

is the system file hal.dll? thats happened to me too. easiest way is to reinstall windows. ask your computer company to reinstall windows. depending on how your computer company does it they may need to buy another disc with windows on it. thats fine as long as the disc has Service Pack 2 or Service Pack 3 included (those are special files included with windows which irons out bugs in windows programming) so you dont have a hard time when you get the pc back. any help required please reply to my message. regards, kirbylover4000.

Re: MS-DOS Boot Disk Download

Thank you,
I appreciate being able to find DOS 6.22....

Re: MS-DOS Boot Disk Download

thanks for this page!

I know, it's free (of charge) and all, but may I second this opinion:

> okay, so this if fine if you have a windows box. I don't so how about
> providing a .img file as well?

that would be most cool, really.

thanks again,

Re: MS-DOS Boot Disk Download

Thanks for the site!
No one has a book disk for Windows Vista.
Do you think you will make one?

Re: MS-DOS Boot Disk Download

Probably not.

I'm not sure how useful a bootable diskette would be for Windows Vista - or if it's even possible to create one. If you need a bootable CD for Vista, you can simply use the CD/DVD that you purchased.

Re: MS-DOS Boot Disk Download

Those of us who went with an ASUS G2S with Vista Home Premium pre-installed do not have the luxury of having the ability to go to a command prompt with the included restore DVD. It boots like a normal Vista DVD would boot but doesn't have an option to do anything other than wipe the drive and reinstall factory settings. Which sucks because I really need to boot into a command shell and run bcdedit as the vista partition will not boot but the partition and all it's data is still visible from linux.
