USB Floppy Drive Setup.

There's also a driver floating around that fixes some DOS issues, the name escapes me right now.

Dave, do you mean "vio-1.0.wpi" patch?

Yes, that is the one, and as Dan has a Thinkpad, might be worth testing.

Thanks, I'll look in to it.

IF I can get it working, assuming it's not user error, mana on the wiki, for anyone else.

I did some more playing with this, without luck.

I believe the patch you mentioned is only for UEFI systems.

In my case, I had the bios set to Legacy Only, CSM Enabled. I saw a warp stock video with DavidA - and it seemed he was saying those are the best setting for AOS.

I also tried creating a program object on the desktop with command.com - In both cases I get a message that the mouse driver loaded and then lockup, only the CAD menu will load.

In the linux world, I would do something like strace command.com - and trace through the system calls. How can that be accomplished in AOS?

See Computer-->Help Center-->Troubleshooting-->Trace Facilities for the documentation. Not sure if possible to trace DOS and know little about it. There is an strace command.

AN fixed my problem, it was a combination of config.sys, autoexec.bat tweaks + the vio patch.

I would have never hit the right combo on my own. =)
