Solve : MS-DOS HELP?

Answer»

I was able to make a bootable msdos disk and it booted up just FINE under WinXp. The PROBLEM is, it won't recognize any other DRIVES but the A drive. I tried to find an answer at google but found nothing. Could someone tell me why it's doing this and how to make it work?

ThanksTry a Windows 98 start up disk at www.bootdisk.com
You will be able to read the drive if it is FAT32 not if NTFS. You will also have CDROM support.

I'm not sure what you're trying to accomplish, however.

thanks for the reply. now i understand.triplex......

The function of the boot disk is to allow you to starup a PC which doesnt have a O/S installed ........ So of course there wouldnt be anything for it to see except the A: drive ......
Exactly what is is your trying to do do with this bootdisk ?
