DOS学习入门 & 精彩文章（教学室） » MS-DOS 7.10 Full Installation Edition Installation Question

After using MS-DOS 7.10 Full Installation Edition installation disk 1 to boot the system, I got the following prompt during installation: If your WinXP is installed on drive C:, please do not install this DOS system. Wengier, is that really true? That would be such a pity.

That's not the case. It just means that if drive C is formatted as NTFS, please do not continue. If drive C has WinXP on it, that's fine.

I have a 486DX2 laptop, currently with MS-DOS 6.22 and WIN32 installed. I now want to install the MS-DOS 7.10 full installation edition, but I don't know whether it can be done. How should I install it (this machine doesn't have a CD-ROM drive)? Thanks!

Just use the MS-DOS 7.10 floppy-disk installation edition to install it (you do have a floppy drive, right!).

What bad luck, my WinXP system partition is NTFS, but the other partitions are FAT32. Is there still a way to install MS-DOS 7.10 and make it dual-boot? Wengier, please advise.

Is there still a way to install MS-DOS 7.10 and make it dual-boot? Wengier, please advise. There are two ways. One is to convert drive C to FAT32 first and then install DOS, the other is to use VFLOPPY to emulate a floppy drive.

Wengier, please give a detailed introduction to the method of "using VFLOPPY to emulate a floppy drive" to install MS-DOS 7.10 and make it dual-boot. Thanks!

Moderator w, won't it work to install dos71 in the second partition (a non-NTFS one)? I think it might be possible. The system files could be in either the first partition or the second partition, one of them should work, right?
