Re: [Freedos-user] Looking for a word processor...

I've had a couple ebooks that were in the multiple megabyte range. Plain text. ;) And no, I don't think I'll actually be writing megabytes of plain text, but I have written more than 64 kb. I had to split it up into individual files. I downloaded one or two of the suggested programs and I'll try

The error message is "CDRCACHE: raw/RedBook not cached 0001". It repeats this message over and over, ad nauseum, making a mes

[Freedos-user] CD drive trouble

Hi, I installed FreeDOS on an old laptop(it used to have Win95, barely). It runs pretty well, but it doesn't open all CDs. Sometimes I put one in, and I have to reboot the computer a couple times to get it to read the disc; other times it just plain won't read it. Can you tell me what I'm doing wr
