Re: [Freedos-user] Long filenames FAT32

2019-05-08 Thread Pär Moberg
If I remember correctly, Windows 2000 install files are 8.3 so long file name support is not required. And for lfn files I would either transfer them over the network or use zip files to contain the lfn. I use info-zip punzip when I fiddle with Windows 2000. I remember in school that we installed w

I must ask, does your computer system have BIOS (Legacy boot) or only UEFI/EFI? FreeDOS does not support UEFI, only BIOS since FreeDOS uses BIOS for the built in drivers, for example for hard-drive access. If your system support BIOS then it would be easy to use syslinux(usb drive)/isolinux(optical

If I understand correctly, TRIM is used on SSDs without dram cache to clean up the drive after a cirtain number of writes so the drive can keep its speed up. I take this information from this video https://youtu.be/v7YBCynA-b0 (they are not fool prof but it seems logical.) So as I understand it, y

Hello, I am looking for a free, preferably opensource, video player. Codec supported must be Cinepak and either alaw or Microsoft ADPCM. Should have support for Cinepak, 16-bit pcm, alaw and Microsoft ADPCM. All of this in a AVI container. I have found quickview while searching but it is neither f
