It did work on smaller disk, but for some reason does not work on current big disk. I am basically using "ms-dos started pack" from Phil so it has good autoexec.bat and config.sys. If you happen to know any solution, let me know ! ) I think my 80486 actually has something else but not sure ) :) So far I have used AWARD SiS 496/497, I think this is the one my 80486 probably has and is probably best, will have to check later, or maybe this is the one my pentium 166 has. I know there is ms-dos 7.1 and such and fat32, maybe I will try that later, but I am used to ms-dos 6.22 and kinda want to push it's limit as far as possible, without losing essential capabilities.įirst I used the AMI 486 clone BIOS, but it has a long wait.
Ms dos 6.22 iso install how to#
Ofcourse I could eventually fall back to real computers/old once, but so far it's nice to produce an IMG/virtual disk in Windows 7 to test and get the games working and such, without having to reboot a real computer constantly, and it just works a bit better/easier with windows explorer and such.Īnd still figuring out how to get the most out of ms-dos 6.22. So I kinda prefer it when it's working, it's kinda slow, but also kinda cool. So far I find that PCemV15 has more beautifull sound reproduction than DOS-BOX. Not having CD-rom support would suck for games like C&C and others which might require the CD-rom to be present. (I fixed the copy_bat.exe with tppatch, however it's still missing fmv.ini but I just create that manually in it's game folder and then both games work). I kinda need the cd-rom to play batman forever iso and batman forever arcade versions. I could also try and convert this IMG into a VMDK or VHD and test it in VMWare 8 and VirtualBox to see how the 8 GB disk behaves there in relation to cd-rom drivers. Maybe it's a bug in PCemV15, it has lot's of hardware emulation, so maybe I should pick something else. Is there any way to fix this ? For example for ms-dos to detect CD-Rom or maybe hide the 4th partition ? This "guy" seems to imply that when 4 partitions are enabled, the cd-rom is prioritized if present and then only 3 partitions will be detected.īut in my situation the cd-rom is not detected at all, and all 4 partitions are detected. When MSCDEX loads it says Error: no CD-ROM drives detected at all.īefore creating these 4 partitions I read about ms-dos 6.22 limitations Then later I run F-DISK and creates 1 big extended partition, with 3 logical partitions into it, 2 GB, 2 GB and then some 1.8 GB remainder or so. (Later switched back to standard IDE and used "auto" detect setting in bios, MS-Dos 6.22 still sees all partitions as 2 GB which so far is nice).
Ms dos 6.22 iso install install#
Used SCSI harddisk drive setting to install ms-dos 6.22 onto 8 GB harddisk, MS-DOS 6.22 creates first partition as 2 GB. Used WinImage to convert floppy images to img format also used it to insert additional files and fixes into iso's and such.
I created 8 GB image with PCemV15, installed ms-dos 6.22 into it.
