Rummaging though a closet space brought to light a few disks that came with a 386 IBM PC. Among these were backups of PC-DOS 5.0 !
There's a Pentium system now taking up space on my desktop- Needless to say, it is one of those clones. I want to get it on the system and switch between Windows 98. Problem is, I hear some PC-DOSes use BIOS interrupt 18, cassette BASIC in its operation: Something that is proprietary to IBM- built machines. It it the case with v5.0? Help would be appreciated.

Well I know we can discount IBM QBasic as a working program
