Thank you! Thank you!

"USB optical mice not supported under DOS" is wrong. As long as the BIOS supports it (nowadays most BIOSes do), there is no problem using USB wireless mice under DOS (I am using one myself now), let alone USB optical mice.

Good stuff, I've been looking for it for a long time

Can a motherboard that does not support USB boot be able to load the USB flash drive driver with a floppy drive and then boot from the USB flash drive?

The meaning of this friend is not very clear, but I am currently doing some experiments related to this. That is, when booting DOS from a USB flash drive or floppy disk, use xmsdsk to make a memory disk. The memory disk has the USB 2.0 driver, let this program drive the USB flash drive, and speed up the boot speed of WIN32 and WIN98 mini versions on the USB flash drive. I am doing experiments. As far as I can see now, I think it is completely possible.
I also downloaded a WINXPE + RDOS online and made it on the USB flash drive. And this boot disk is not based on DOS, but GRUB, which can choose to boot WINXPE or a DOS image in IMG format. I already have a large number of my commonly used DOS programs on the USB flash drive, and there are many programs and a lot of batch processing made. Therefore, I don't want to make too many modifications. So I also have the above idea, make a simple DOS boot disk, copy relevant files to the memory disk, drive the USB flash drive, and then boot from the USB flash drive. In fact, it is possible.

Haven't used this yet.

I also want it. Thanks!

Just in time to help someone build a computer this afternoon, let's try it.

This should be similar to ctload. It doesn't support hot swapping. When a USB drive is needed, enter loadusb. But if you unplug the USB and plug it back in, it won't work. And this driver will stay in memory and not be released. When you want to loadusb several times, you find that there's not enough memory, and you have to restart. It's better to cooperate with detection. If the USB drive letter or ID can't be found, clear the memory in time. Otherwise, it's very troublesome. It's better than usbmass, usbmass/ul (uninstall)

====================
Readme in the attachment:
1 This program is a plug-and-play USB 2.0 driver under DOS;
2 After the computer is booted with DOS, insert the USB drive (or before booting) into any USB port of the computer;
3 Run Loadusb.exe to load the driver of the USB drive, and then you can read and write the data of the USB drive;
4 Usbaspi.sys (version 2.2) is Panasonic's latest DOS USB driver.
5 devload.com is used to load the driver; DI1000DD.sys is used to assign drive letters; loadusb.exe is actually a batch file, and its content is:
devload usbaspi.sys
devload di1000dd.sys

Thanks a lot. I've been looking for a long time and finally found it here.

Thanks for sharing, the original poster has worked hard!

Can my DVD drive be driven?

Thank you.

I'm just about to! Thank you!!
