Is MS-DOS 6.22 free to DOWNLOAD? I have MS-DOS 6.22 but it's in a different LANGUAGE. I have mine as ISO's on CD's. I didn't make the ISO's myself. I don't have a floppy drive. Could I get it for free as an ISO?MS-DOS 6.22 was only released in a 3-floppy set AFAIK; it's also still under Microsoft's copyright and any discussion about where to obtain it would breach the forum rules.

However- there are bootdisks available from bootdisk.com; you can use tools like WinImage or IMGBURN to create ISO files from the DOS BOOT disks. QUOTE from: BC_Programmer on December 10, 2008, 12:59:43 PM

MS-DOS 6.22 was only released in a 3-floppy set AFAIK; it's also still under Microsoft's copyright and any discussion about where to obtain it would breach the forum rules.

However- there are bootdisks available from bootdisk.com; you can use tools like WinImage or ImgBurn to create ISO files from the DOS boot disks.

The boot disks will only contain the essentials; command.com, the boot loader, etc.

Stuff it won't contain are all the utilities, such as MORE, FIND, etc.


I don't know how MS made the multiple languages of DOS, but it is feasible that you could take the core files from a English Boot disk and use the utilities from your foreign version; whether it will actually work I couldn't say.

Also- I looked it up, and I was wrong, DOS 6.22 was actually 4 floppies. (not that it matters, but I thought I'd correct myself anyway)


Google searches might help you find some Disc images; the trouble then would be getting it onto a CD...
