Where can I get

A good copy on disk of Dos 5.0?

Building a legacy gaming box, 286 style.

From the looks of it, MS has a 6.22 download...free, too.

Maybe Bill's running a fever or something.

Or you might try the Google wordgame:

And then there's torrents...

Hello, Mr. & Mrs. ICE

I will send you a PM.............. I don't think MS will be too bothered, but I do have that which you wish for ;)

Will it be OK on 3.5" floppies? if you really need it on 5.25" I can do that also, but I would need to install a drive...........

Errr..... this is legitimate software that is not installed on another computer, and is OTS rather than OEM................like "retail"?

:D

BTW one of my 286s runs that and Windows 2.03 :cool:

3.5 is fine - or you can email attachment if desired. Understood on legit - 5.0 is legit the world round, no copy protection to it and never was. We'll work out the details via PM and thanks.

hi |3lack|ce

I tried to email it but it bounced, said it was too big for your mailbox. I've uploaded it to here instead, so you can download it

I was in traffic this morning and the car in front of me had MS DOS on the plate. Maybe you should ask him. :)
