"Note: Please use MAKEBOOT.BAT or HD-COPY.EXE to expand the MSDOS710.IMG file to a floppy disk to make a cost-effective super MS-DOS 7.10 bootable disk.
However, if you are under Windows NT/2K/XP system, you should use WinImage to expand this image file, and you cannot use the aforementioned programs or WinRAR to make the bootable disk." Then where can I find WinImage? I can't seem to find it in Windows?

You said that the Super MS-DOS 7.10 boot disk you used is the version from April 6th. Where can I download the latest version? Why is the latest version I downloaded from February 2004?
The problem reported by the previous netizen liujx I also encountered. When I used Kingsoft Antivirus 2002 (genuine, latest virus database) to scan for viruses, it prompted: Found the Gorgan.2718 virus in A:\KPUSH.COM, and it has been cleared. Then when I checked the files on drive A, the file size of KPUSH.COM became 0.

I made a CD bootable disk, it can boot, but when inserting the Newman mobile hard disk and booting, it freezes! If inserted after booting, there is no response! It seems that on different computers, there is the statement of "No EMS"! I don't know why! Please help analyze! Thank you!

Very rewarding. Thanks!

This thing is problematic. It's not as easy to use as the old version. Can't find the NTFS driver disk. Can't even read the FAT32 C drive. I have a Toshiba laptop.

The downloaded boot disk (mdos71bd)
I feel it is the best boot disk I have seen so far.
It enables my old motherboard to boot from the CD-ROM as well.
There is just one problem I would like to ask you about:
That is, after booting from the floppy disk, the hard disk I partitioned with dm cannot be found. (Only the drive letter can be seen)
Booting from the floppy disk, switching to the hard disk and CD-ROM boot is normal.

I have discovered another problem. When running kingcopy3.1 under this boot disk, there are all garbled characters. It can run normally under the ordinary 98 boot disk.

I have used this, but it seems not to work well with some early USB flash drives. I wonder if it's because the drivers can't be universal. I hope you all can explain it to me.

thanks for sharing...............

OK

I want to use a Newmine mobile hard disk under DOS, with a USB 1.1 interface. But I don't know why when I boot with the Super Universal MS-DOS 7.10 boot disk and select 3, it freezes when it's about to show A:\>. But the mobile hard disk has been found and assigned a drive letter, but the D drive (NTFS) is not found. At first, I thought it was the problem of the mobile hard disk, but after removing it and directly selecting 3 to enter, it also freezes at that point. I don't know why.

When selecting 4 to enter, the mobile hard disk is not found. It says many USB devices are found, and I don't understand what parameter /H is needed. But sometimes it still freezes, sometimes the D drive (NTFS) is not found, and sometimes it is found. I don't know why there are so many strange phenomena. Please give me some advice. I thank you in advance.

My computer configuration is as follows:
Celeron 1.2G, 160M SDRAM, WD40G,
C drive (FAT32) is installed with Windows 98, D drive (NTFS) is installed with Windows XP, and Linux 10.0 is also installed (it was installed by partitioning magic by dividing a part from the D drive).

What is smartdrv?

Is this thread still valid? Is it that the hard disk can't be partitioned and formatted after this boot disk is installed? I want to format the damaged system partition and reinstall it. But after entering the DOS system from this boot disk, I can only copy and delete. Why doesn't the FORMAT work! (Don't want to repartition. The damaged system is WIN XP)

May I ask why when I use Nero to burn it into a bootable disk, after booting the system, the hard drive is not recognized?

Can a USB mobile hard drive be booted under DOS?
