please microsoft I need to buy a DOS-based product, hopefully something with (or can genrerate) a usable 3.5' boot floppy disk. I would also appreciate it if the cdrom could be made available to me for the same license key.

Create Bootable MS-DOS 6.22 CD in Windows 10. Posted on July 28, 2017 Author Trisha 5 Comments. When you have to update the BIOS of an older system, sometimes you have to boot into the old MS-DOS or FreeDOS and then execute the update program. MS-DOS Download (img):: MS-DOS (short for Microsoft Disk Operating System) is an operating system commercialized by Microsoft. It was the most commonly used member of the DOS family of operating systems and was the main operating system for computers during the 1980s. It was based on the Intel 8086 family of microprocessors, particularly the IBM PC and compatibles.
how much would it cost for multiple copies?
I need this to run some current software products.
if it is not available, can you make it available again? there's a market of about 65,000+ people who will probably buy it just to use spinrite alone.
in fact, why not come up with a UEFI-capable version of MS-DOS? the DOS community needs that. people will probably step to to the plate and program for it. make a compiler for it and sell it and keep offering it. one of the uses is embedded systems and there are a fair number of such folk out there.
I would also like to buy a windows 3.1. I would prefer cdrom, but will take 3.5' floppies.
I need to know the cost, a URL, or how to order and who to contact at what phone number or what department to ask for.
I would like to run them in a VM or whatever. Hfsexplorer portable download. I may buy multiple copies depending on the price.
please sell these to me and others. make then available on the microsoft web site. thanks.
it's also critical for me as a software developer to have XP Mode available on windows 8.1 and later versions of windows because it has command.com, and that it not crash all over the place. I also need to have windows 7 have the ability to mount virtual hard drives of various formats, like vhd's and vhdx and so on. I can't do development work without the ability to share some common data between the virtual machine and windows 7 or whatever OS. am currently using win7 pro and VirtualPC. but XP mode should be made available on hyper-V, and the license for it should be such that it is not limited to 1 session per computer, now that XP is laid by the wayside. I need to get work done.
multitasking or task-switching UEFI-enabled DOS would be nice, and current printer support, at least to do print-screens and have it work with usb printers, and drives, TCP/IP, etc.
and it doesn't have to be 80x25 text only. I am thinking 200x120 or more now that we have HD screens and you can do some really cool stuff with that on disk management programs or it could be divided up into text windows.
provide mouse support. make a GUI available.
but it should be instantaneous. and it should be such that no disk caching is installed unless the user wants it, so if the user wants to power-off the box, they can just do it and it's safe, like DOS.
and it needs a filesystem fixer and bad block fixer, like chkdsk /f and chkdsk /f /r.
FAT32 and exFAT/FAT64 would be a nice additional fiesystem to include.
include a web browser, ftp, and telnet client and include a TCP/IP stack that works with IPV4 and IPV6. publish the APIs. make available the TCP/IP SDK or something.
this kind of OS alone could be a usable OS just for hosting disk utilities (on CDROM or otherwise).
it should be easy to make a bootable cdrom image. make some sort of kit or instructions and utilities available for extracting the boot sector, etc;.
and *please* remove the old bug-related filesystem limitations off of FAT32 from current versions of windows. FAT32 can do 8TiB or better, but an old win98 bug that didn't get fixed has limited *everything* related to FAT32 to 32GiB and it's not right.
please fix.
and *please* make windows XP mode and windows XP and differing versions of windows' file and printer sharing work with each other. it's exasperating. We have at our house a windows 3.1 machine, PC-DOS 2000, windows 7, windows XP 2 different flavors. and I have a windows 8 upgrade. perhaps microsoft should standardize on NFS or SMB and stick with it.
