Hello does anyone have a copy of a Windows 3.1 Boot Up Disk? I need it urgently as I am currently renovating a 33Mhz 386? Please help!
I need the system files of Win 3.1. Eg.COMMAND.COM so if any one can email me the system files it would be greatly appreciated Matthew

There is a win 31 boot disk.If you need it e-mail me and I'll send it to you e-mail. Go back to the main page of win 31 and I'll have a listing there to tell you how to make one.

What you need is a boot disk for dos 6.2 I also need this real bad if someone can get me a boot disk. If you have a C:\ prompt just type in cd windows Then push enter. after that type win Then push enter and it should start.

win3.11 won't start up after installing it to empty hard drive with win98's boot disk ?? Complains that ms-dos version is incompatible... where can I get older versions of io.sys and command.com files ? I think those are the files needed to be replaced. comments ?
I have an older DOS system with windows 3.1. My boyfriend wanted to check out my computer that was sitting on my desk when I was out with friends. He plugged it directly into the wall, and to make a long story short, the power went off and then surged through it two times in a row. Now it says I need a boot up disk. I boot it used, and never made one, and now I can't get into my computer! PLEASE can someone help me? Does anyone have a disk I can borrow? Thank you for you help. E-mail me!
