--001a113adb827fc4b6054b96ff86 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Rugxulo: I've got a Windows 10 and 7 right now on the machine. I want to keep dual (Win10 and FreeDOS). I'll try the virtual machine, tks, and for the links. Jerome: Thank you for your answer. I have no problem to install any Windows or Linux from a partition to the same hard disk. It's easier and faster than a DVD or USB, actually. But I've tried this with FreeDOS and nothing. Switch HD is the way when there is not other solution. Always my last hard alternative... ;) On Sat, Mar 25, 2017 at 7:18 PM, Jerome Shidel <jer...@shidel.net> wrote: > > > On Mar 25, 2017, at 5:00 PM, Aleksei Ivan <aleksei....@gmail.com> wrote: > > My USB ports are NOT working too.
