I wonder what you are talking about.
current machines *do* boot DOS, and mosty likely will continue to do
so for the foreseeable future.

Hey,
I was wondering how you get the drivers for the other cards in a comp

you find the sound card manufacturer to get a driver? Or for any other
drivers? Is there an easy program like NICSCAN (
