Solve : freeDOS?

1.	Solve : freeDOS?
Answer» If i press f8 i get the following: Device....[y,n] n Autoexec.bat [y,n] y Set prompt=$p$g [y,n] y Set path=c:\\bin [y,n] y Set nlspath=c:\\nls [y n] y Set helppath=c:\\HELP y,n y Set temp= c:\\temp y,n I think this keeps going if I enter y so I am going to stop before i SCREW things up even more. If i di nothing I get: Invalid opcode at 000B 0000 0006 544e 5952 532e 5359 0000 4esc 5c33 3a44 4443 4f52 in a nutshell, my end goal is to load Windows 7 but baring that to at least get dos RUNNING again. The computer came preloaded with freeDOS. Here in Asia you have to load your own os. I now see why US computers come preloaded, because i am so fustrated I'd probably go postal on someone at Asus ; )Quote from: netbookidiot on November 24, 2013, 04:02:06 AM If i press f8 i get the following: Device....[y,n] n Autoexec.bat [y,n] y Set prompt=$p$g [y,n] y Set path=c:\\bin [y,n] y Set nlspath=c:\\nls [y n] y Set helppath=c:\\help y,n y Set temp= c:\\temp y,n I think this keeps going if I enter y so I am going to stop before i screw things up even more.

Note which line it is and REM it out. I SUSPECT it is a corrupted TSR and may not be needed. But to install Windows, you need an external USB DVD drive and just boot off the DVD and install Windows.

I do that all the time on netbooks without optical drives.I think I finally got this to work! In the bios under security I was able to unlock USB and now Windows is loading. Hopefully the install goes well. Thank you for your help.

If i press f8 i get the following:
Device....[y,n] n
Autoexec.bat [y,n] y
Set prompt=$p$g [y,n] y
Set path=c:\\bin [y,n] y
Set nlspath=c:\\nls [y n] y
Set helppath=c:\\HELP y,n y
Set temp= c:\\temp y,n
I think this keeps going if I enter y so I am going to stop before i SCREW things up even more.

If i di nothing I get:
Invalid opcode at 000B 0000 0006 544e 5952 532e 5359 0000 4esc 5c33 3a44 4443 4f52

in a nutshell, my end goal is to load Windows 7 but baring that to at least get dos RUNNING again.
