I have an old i486 machine, model epson pc486note as, a notebook made in 1993. The operating system is Japanese. Now I want to reinstall the OS, but I can't find a suitable boot disk. A boot disk made by Win98 won't boot it. I hope an expert can give me some advice.

The following is quoted from xalphay's post at 2004-1-6 23:24:04:Can you be sure this computer of yours is not from the PC-98x1 series? |

To tell the truth, I can't rule out that possibility, but I heard that machines made through cooperation between epson and nec are compatibles. But when it boots, I also see the words nec 9800, so does that mean this machine has no chance of having the system reinstalled?

My guess is that since it's a 486, you can install English DOS and then load a Chinese character support system.

The following is quoted from xalphay's post at 2004-1-7 21:52:51:Then you'll have to install the PC-98x1 edition of DOS. |

The following is quoted from didinono's post at 2004-1-9 23:30:12:DOS/V is for x86 machines... As for the PC-98x1 series... you need to install the dedicated OS. |

Thanks for everyone's attention. I've already tried DOS/V twice. Doing it the usual way for ordinary PCs doesn't work, that is, insert the floppy and reboot; the result is the same as with a 98 boot disk, no response. I can't read Japanese websites either. You can take a look at what the machine looks like here http://homepage2.nifty.com/takakazu/486as.htm
