David: I still want to have the Windoze 95/98 multi-boot option to transfer my rendered files via MS Networks to my other PC (Win2000) which functions as the Printer server for my HP DJ3500 CP printer. I also like to use PaintShop & Photoshop to clean up and anti-alias my files. Space really isn't an issue. I burn my "Keeper" images onto CD-Roms anyway. A clean multiboot to DOS 7 (Win95/Win98) is the way to go for me. I think the big breakthrough with DOS 7 was the supposed elimination of the "1Meg Dos Ceiling", doing away with the need for EMS and XMS. Too bad it was only ten years too late. A FAT16 File system Partition is also the way to go for Fractint. I've noticed thatg Faactint does prefer FAT16 to FAT32, even though I've got Fractint on a Fat32 file system partition on one of my PCs . All the best, TG
BTW there's a way to edit msdos.sys to boot directly to the DOS 7.0
command
prompt. I forgot the exact commands but I'm someone on this mail list
knows
the code.....
I'd use OpenDOS or DRDOS instead, then you don't have to hassle with
msdos.sys
and you don't have to waste disk space on all the other Windows files that would be installed on it.
