| 1. 介绍 (Introduction) |
+------------------------+
我花了不少时间自制了此MS-DOS 7.10启动盘,它有很多非常强大实用的功能,
相信比网上同类的DOS启动盘要好得多,增加了大量实用的功能和特色。
尤其是全面的DOS启动LOGO画面、长文件名、大硬盘、大内存、FAT32、NTFS、
USB等支持,相信是绝大多数同类DOS启动盘所无法比拟的。下面就来介绍一下。
+-----------------------------+
| 2. 主要特点 (Main Features) |
+-----------------------------+

----------------------------
下面再将这20大特点更详细地介绍一下:
1 - DOS启动LOGO画面 (DOS Animated Startup Logo)
===============================================
为我自己在Windows开机画面的基础上修改面成的,包含DOS的启动标志及底部的
动画滚动条等。这样以来,DOS也有了自己的启动LOGO画面了!
2 - 多配置启动菜单 (Multi-configration startup menu)
====================================================
此MS-DOS 7.10启动盘启动时会出现四项选择,第一项是用EMM386方式启动,第二
项是用UMBPCI方式启动,第三项再加入NTFS和USB驱动器的支持。
因为EMM386在极少数电脑上可能无法正常使用,而UMBPCI最主要的问题则是不支持
部分主板,所以启动时让用户在EMM386和UMBPCI之间进行一次选择。
这样以来,用户可以更好的使用此启动盘以启动电脑。
而启动菜单中的第四项则用来直接查看本帮助文件,而且系统会自动加载汉字系统
以支持中文的显示。
除此之外,用户在启动时还可以根据系统提示选择是否自动加载PC-CACHE、
Volkov Commander等程序。
3 - 全面的中英文长文件名支持 (Full Long File Name support)
===============================================================
采用DOSLFN长文件名驱动程序,以使本DOS启动盘一启动就能像Win9x的DOS窗口中
那样全面支持及使用长文件名,包括中文长文件名。
除DOS的内部命令以外,许多其它的DOS程序,如Volkov Commander 4.99等这时都
可以在纯DOS下使用长文件名了。
4 - 全面的(V)FAT12/16/32支持 (Full FAT12/16/32 support)
==========================================================
MS-DOS 7.10本地完善地提供了FAT12/16/32分区支持,因此启动盘继承了此功能。
而以上提到的长文件名驱动程序则启用VFAT(虚拟FAT)的支持。
5 - NTFS驱动器支持 (NTFS Drives support)
========================================
通过使用NTFS的驱动程序NTFSDOS,使此启动盘能够全面支持NTFS驱动器,包括
NTFS分区上的长文件名。
当在启动菜单中选择第三项(即倒数第二项)后,系统会自动加载NTFSDOS驱动
程序以支持NTFS驱动器。
若想在命令行下手工加载它也是可以的,即执行NTFSDOS或NTFSDOS /U(/U表示
启用Unicode支持)即可。
6 - USB驱动器支持 (USB Drives support)
======================================
当在启动菜单中选择第三项(即倒数第二项)后,系统会在启动时自动加载DUSE、
Motto Hairu等USB驱动程序以提供USB驱动器的支持。
支持许多USB驱动器,例如USB硬盘、USB光驱、USB软驱、USB ZIP驱动器等。对于
部分电脑,有时还可以手工设置一下驱动器的参数以更好的支持您的USB驱动器。
或者也可以在命令行下用CTLOAD、ADDEV等命令手工加载这些驱动程序,例如执行
CTLOAD DUSE.EXE DRIVES=2。
7 - 大硬盘支持 (Large Hard Disk support)
========================================
除支持标准的硬盘外,还支持非常大(100G以上)的大硬盘,包括Int13X扩展分区
等。同样,本启动盘中提供的各种工具(如Free FDISK等)也都是支持大硬盘的,
因此不用担心此启动盘不能识别您的大容量硬盘。
8 - 大内存支持 (Large Memory support)
=====================================
支持最高高达2GB的大内存,并提供XMS及UMB内存,以最大限度的发挥电脑的功能。
9 - 各种光驱支持 (Full CD/DVD Drives support)
=============================================
通过使用最好的通用光驱驱动程序(如VIDE-CDD.SYS及USBCD.SYS等),支持各种
IDE/ATAPI以及大多数SCSI/ASPI甚至USB光驱,并且速度快,占用内存少。
还可以通过启动盘中自带的FINDCD程序将已安装的光驱盘符显示出来并设置到环境
变量中,例如:FINDCD /S就可以将当前所有的光驱盘符进行显示和设置。
10 - 内存盘功能 (RAM Drives support)
====================================
通过使用最好的内存虚拟盘工具XMSDSK,自动提供4M的内存盘,并且可以在命令行
下通过XMSDSK命令随意修改其大小。
11 - 中文支持 (Chinese support)
===============================
此启动盘的中文支持体现在多个方面,一是长文件名驱动程序DOSLFN使用代码页936
(简体中文)以全面支持中文长文件名;二是自带小巧的袖珍龙XZL汉字系统,启动
它后就可以全面支持DOS下汉字(包括汉字长文件名)的显示。
同时本说明文件也是中文的,因此可以启动汉字系统后直接在命令行下用MORE、EDIT
等命令直接查看其中的内容,或者可以直接在开机时的启动菜单中选第四项以自动
打开本文件进行查看。
12 - 全面的鼠标支持 (Full mouse support)
========================================
通过使用最好的鼠标驱动程序CuteMouse 1.9,支持各种串口和PS/2鼠标等,且速度
非常快,占用内存少;通用使用MouseClip程序,使DOS命令行下也可以轻易的使用
鼠标,而且支持复制/粘帖以及模拟方向键的功能。
13 - 高空闲常规内存 (High free conventional memory)
===================================================
用此启动盘启动系统后,尽管加载了很多实用的功能,但空闲常规内存通常仍高达
625K-630K,空闲UMB内存通常也有几十K。
这样以来,用它启动后运行任何程序都不会提示内存不足,因为还有大量的空闲内存
可用。
14 - 系统的高稳定性 (High stability of system)
==============================================
此启动盘中自带了KILLER及ESCAPE程序,大大增强了系统的稳定性:
KILLER:可以自动截获运行的程序中的不正确指定,并返回DOS,以防止系统的不
稳定或死机;
ESCAPE:可以在任何情况下按F12键以返回DOS,以防止系统死机。
可见,KILLER和ESCAPE是相辐相承的,前者是系统主动,后者是用户主动,以最大
限度的加强系统的稳定性。
15 - 系统维护功能 (Function of system maintenance)
==================================================
启动盘中除自带CHKDSK、FORMAT、FDISK等常用DOS磁盘工具外,还带有BOOTPART、
SRC Tools等许多实用的系统维护工具。
BOOTPART是命令行方式的启动分区管理器,功能非常强大;SRC Tools则可以进行
保存/恢复/检查->磁盘的启动扇区/MBR/FAT,以很好的维护系统和磁盘。
16 - 各种压缩包支持 (Full support for archives)
===============================================
启动盘中带有PKUNZIP 2.50、UNARJ、EXTRACT、UNDISK等实用的压缩包解压工具,
并且大多支持长文件名。
因此,此启动盘支持ZIP、ARJ、CAB、IMG等各种常见格式的压缩包及磁盘镜像,大大
方便了使用。
17 - 图形方式的文件管理 (Graphics File Manager included)
========================================================
启动盘中自带Volkov Commander(VC)文件管理器,一个非常强大实用且有名的文件
管理工具,图形界面操作,且全面支持长文件名。
系统启动后会自动提示是否启动VC,即显示以下信息:
Press ENTER in 2 seconds if you want to start Volkov Commander..
这时若在2秒钟内按下回车键即自动启动VC 4.99,否则不自动启动它,但可以以后
随时在命令行下用VC命令手工启动它。
18 - 可以直接启动Windows (Able to launch Windows directly)
==========================================================
此MS-DOS 7.10启动盘提供了直接启动Windows,包括Win3.x、Win9x等版本的功能,
与Windows亲密无间。具体方法是在DOS命令行下输入WIN命令以启动相应版本的
Windows。(注:已通过使用3xStart程序以加强与Windows的高度配合性)。
并且如以上的特点所述,此MS-DOS 7.10启动盘全面支持长文件名、FAT32分区、
大硬盘等各项功能,所以不会与Windows有任何不兼容。
注:如果是用软盘启动本启动盘,请确保启动Windows的时候软盘在软驱中。要进入
Windows 9x界面,请先进入Windows所在的文件夹,然后运行WIN命令即可。
19 - 兼容性和通用性强 (High compatibility and optimized for general use)
========================================================================
本MS-DOS 7.10启动盘从开始制作起就全面考虑到了兼容性和通用性的问题,并按照
此要求进行了各种优化配置,所以它不仅功能众多且强大实用,而且兼容性和通用性
也是非常强的。用它启动后就可以运行各种DOS程序了(如果有的话),包括Windows
安装程序等。而且通过种种配置,使得只要满足了下面所列出的系统需求,它就应该
能够在各种不同的电脑上正常使用。
20 - 许多实用的工具 (Many useful tools)
=======================================
本启动盘中包含许多非常实用的工具,如UMBPCI、PERUSE、CWSDPMI、PC-CACHE等,
可以提供DPMI服务、磁盘缓冲、音乐播放、图像查看、屏幕显示控制等各种功能。

+------------------------+
| 1. Introduction |
+------------------------+
I spent quite a lot of time making this MS-DOS 7.10 boot disk by myself. It has many very powerful and practical functions. I believe it is much better than similar DOS boot disks on the Internet. A large number of practical functions and features have been added. Especially the comprehensive DOS startup LOGO screen, long file names, large hard disks, large memory, FAT32, NTFS, USB support, etc. I believe it is incomparable with most similar DOS boot disks. Let's introduce it below.
+-----------------------------+
| 2. Main Features |
+-----------------------------+
This MS-DOS 7.10 boot disk has many features. The following lists the top 20 most prominent features:
----------------------------
- DOS Animated Startup Logo
- Multi-configuration startup menu
- Full Long File Name (LFN) support
- Full FAT12/16/32 support
- NTFS Drives support
- USB Drives support
- Large Hard Disk support
- Large Memory support
- Full CD/DVD Drives support
- RAM Drives support
- Chinese support
- Full mouse support
- High free conventional memory
- High stability of system
- Function of system maintenance
- Full support for archives
- Graphics File Manager included
- Able to launch Windows directly
- High compatibility and optimized for general use
- Many useful tools
----------------------------
The following further introduces these 20 features in detail:
1 - DOS Animated Startup Logo
===============================================
It is modified based on the Windows boot screen. It contains the DOS startup logo and the animated scroll bar at the bottom. In this way, DOS also has its own startup LOGO screen!
2 - Multi-configuration startup menu
====================================================
When this MS-DOS 7.10 boot disk starts, there will be four options. The first option is to start in EMM386 mode, the second option is to start in UMBPCI mode, and the third option adds support for NTFS and USB drives. Because EMM386 may not work normally on a very few computers, and the main problem with UMBPCI is that it does not support some motherboards, so the user can choose between EMM386 and UMBPCI when starting. In this way, the user can better use this boot disk to start the computer. The fourth item in the startup menu is used to directly view this help file, and the system will automatically load the Chinese character system to support Chinese display. In addition, the user can also choose whether to automatically load programs such as PC-CACHE and Volkov Commander according to the system prompt when starting.
3 - Full Long File Name (LFN) support
===============================================================
The DOSLFN long file name driver is used, so that this DOS boot disk can fully support and use long file names as soon as it starts, including Chinese long file names, just like in the DOS window of Win9x. Except for the internal commands of DOS, many other DOS programs, such as Volkov Commander 4.99, can now use long file names in pure DOS.
4 - Full FAT12/16/32 support
==========================================================
MS-DOS 7.10 natively provides comprehensive support for FAT12/16/32 partitions, so the boot disk inherits this function. And the above-mentioned long file name driver enables support for VFAT (virtual FAT).
5 - NTFS Drives support
========================================
By using the NTFS driver NTFSDOS, this boot disk can fully support NTFS drives, including long file names on NTFS partitions. When the third option (that is, the second-to-last option) is selected in the startup menu, the system will automatically load the NTFSDOS driver to support NTFS drives. It is also possible to manually load it at the command line, that is, execute NTFSDOS or NTFSDOS /U (/U means to enable Unicode support).
6 - USB Drives support
======================================
When the third option (that is, the second-to-last option) is selected in the startup menu, the system will automatically load USB drivers such as DUSE and Motto Hairu when starting to provide support for USB drives. It supports many USB drives, such as USB hard disks, USB optical drives, USB floppy drives, USB ZIP drives, etc. For some computers, sometimes you can manually set the parameters of the drive to better support your USB drive. Or you can also manually load these drivers at the command line using commands such as CTLOAD and ADDEV, for example, execute CTLOAD DUSE.EXE DRIVES=2.
7 - Large Hard Disk support
========================================
In addition to supporting standard hard disks, it also supports very large hard disks (over 100G), including Int13X extended partitions, etc. Similarly, all the tools provided in this boot disk (such as Free FDISK, etc.) also support large hard disks, so there is no need to worry that this boot disk cannot recognize your large-capacity hard disk.
8 - Large Memory support
=====================================
It supports large memory up to 2GB, and provides XMS and UMB memory to maximize the performance of the computer.
9 - Full CD/DVD Drives support
=============================================
By using the best general optical drive drivers (such as VIDE-CDD.SYS and USBCD.SYS, etc.), it supports various IDE/ATAPI as well as most SCSI/ASPI and even USB optical drives, and it is fast and occupies less memory. The FINDCD program自带 in the boot disk can also display the installed optical drive drive letters and set them to environment variables. For example, FINDCD /S can display and set all current optical drive drive letters.
10 - RAM Drives support
====================================
By using the best memory virtual disk tool XMSDSK, a 4M memory disk is automatically provided, and its size can be arbitrarily modified at the command line through the XMSDSK command.
11 - Chinese support
===============================
The Chinese support of this boot disk is reflected in many aspects. First, the long file name driver DOSLFN uses code page 936 (simplified Chinese) to fully support Chinese long file names; second, it comes with the compact XZL Chinese character system. After starting it, it can fully support the display of Chinese characters (including Chinese long file names) in DOS. At the same time, this instruction file is also in Chinese, so you can directly use commands such as MORE and EDIT at the command line to view its content after starting the Chinese character system, or you can directly select the fourth item in the startup menu when booting to automatically open this file for viewing.
12 - Full mouse support
========================================
By using the best mouse driver CuteMouse 1.9, it supports various serial port and PS/2 mice, etc., and it is very fast and occupies less memory; the universal use of MouseClip program enables the easy use of the mouse in the DOS command line, and it supports copy/paste and the function of simulating direction keys.
13 - High free conventional memory
===================================================
After starting the system with this boot disk, although many practical functions are loaded, the free conventional memory is usually still as high as 625K-630K, and the free UMB memory is usually also tens of K. In this way, when you start it and run any program, there will be no memory shortage prompt, because there is still a large amount of free memory available.
14 - High stability of system
==============================================
This boot disk comes with KILLER and ESCAPE programs, which greatly enhance the stability of the system:
KILLER: It can automatically intercept incorrect specifications in running programs and return to DOS to prevent system instability or crashes;
ESCAPE: It can press the F12 key to return to DOS in any situation to prevent the system from crashing. It can be seen that KILLER and ESCAPE are complementary. The former is proactive by the system, and the latter is proactive by the user to maximize the enhancement of system stability.
15 - Function of system maintenance
==================================================
In addition to the commonly used DOS disk tools such as CHKDSK, FORMAT, FDISK, etc., the boot disk also comes with many practical system maintenance tools such as BOOTPART and SRC Tools.
BOOTPART is a command-line startup partition manager with very powerful functions; SRC Tools can save/restore/check the boot sector/MBR/FAT of the disk to well maintain the system and disk.
16 - Full support for archives
===============================================
The boot disk comes with practical archive extraction tools such as PKUNZIP 2.50, UNARJ, EXTRACT, UNDISK, etc., and most of them support long file names. Therefore, this boot disk supports various common formats of archives and disk images such as ZIP, ARJ, CAB, IMG, etc., which greatly facilitates use.
17 - Graphics File Manager included
========================================================
The boot disk comes with Volkov Commander (VC) file manager, a very powerful, practical and famous file management tool, with a graphical interface operation and fully supports long file names. After the system starts, it will automatically prompt whether to start VC, that is, the following information is displayed:
Press ENTER in 2 seconds if you want to start Volkov Commander..
If you press the Enter key within 2 seconds, VC 4.99 will be automatically started; otherwise, it will not be started automatically, but it can be manually started at the command line with the VC command at any time.
18 - Able to launch Windows directly
==========================================================
This MS-DOS 7.10 boot disk provides the function of directly launching Windows, including versions such as Win3.x and Win9x, and is closely integrated with Windows. The specific method is to enter the WIN command at the DOS command line to start the corresponding version of Windows. (Note: It has been enhanced to cooperate highly with Windows by using the 3xStart program). And as described in the above features, this MS-DOS 7.10 boot disk fully supports functions such as long file names, FAT32 partitions, large hard disks, etc., so there will be no incompatibility with Windows.
Note: If you use a floppy disk to boot this boot disk, please make sure that the floppy disk is in the floppy drive when starting Windows. To enter the Windows 9x interface, first enter the folder where Windows is located, and then run the WIN command.
19 - High compatibility and optimized for general use
========================================================================
This MS-DOS 7.10 boot disk has fully considered the issues of compatibility and universality from the beginning of production, and has carried out various optimized configurations according to this requirement. Therefore, it not only has many powerful and practical functions, but also has very strong compatibility and universality. After starting it, you can run various DOS programs (if any), including Windows installation programs, etc. And through various configurations, as long as the system requirements listed below are met, it should be able to work normally on various different computers.
