Dos6.22 problem getting into system
LockedHello and I’m so happy I found this forum. I have an old ms3.1/dos6.22 computer and it’s crammed full of dos games one of which is Relentless a.k.a. Little Big Adventure which I decided to play again for the millionth time (after a lonnnnnnnnnn hiatus). I played a bit at the beginning but had to abruptly stop to help someone last week. I left the cd in the cd tray when I got off the machine. Oh, my machine begins in dos, not windows if that’s important. So I decided to play in earnest today and discovered I’d goofed leaving that cd in (of course I removed it but too late). Machine tells me boot disk (oh the olden days of boot disks) failed and I should insert system disk. I’ve no idea what that is! Have I done something irreparable? I’ve never been a techie type except I used to know a lot about mem management, and that was IT (in dos) and so many years ago. I tried using setup but frankly don’t remember how to use it if I ever did so just escaped. In the hope that someone here will remember how to clean up the waters I inadvertently muddied, I’d be forever grateful. Trini (my first sad post)
