hi frank microsofts offical line is there is no dos support in me.
ME does have support for dos, but not by default. you have to get a patch to enable it. unfortunately these patches are not made by microsoft. in my expierence i have never had success with them and always had to reinstall after i tried one. so i would not suggest trying it. installing 98se is much easier and safer and faster. personally i think they stuffed dos up and are too ashamed to admit it ;) ________________________________________ Robert MacLean ----- Original Message ----- From: "Franki" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, October 01, 2001 4:54 PM Subject: RE: [newbie] Grub problems > are you sure?? > > I was under the impression that ME had hidden dos and didn't allow you to > use it, except as an emulation from the start button... > > 98SE will let you, but I know for a fact that 2000 and XP won't,, and I was > under the impression that ME didn't let you either.. > > I know that 2000 and XP are based on the NT kernel and ME is based on the 95 > kernel, but I was still under the impression that they had tried to make ME > look more like 2000 then 95, (weather it is or not.) > > > rgds > > Frank > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Adrian Lynch > Sent: Monday, 1 October 2001 10:19 PM > To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' > Subject: RE: [newbie] Grub problems > > > I'm not sure this is true, I have ME (God bless my soul) and I can, I think, > exit to DOS.
