I'm making a bootdisk and would like for it to have color to it.what program would I need to make this disk and also how to set it up? Thanks when you think that you know it all! you know nothing

www.bootdisk.com to download the files to create a boot disk. Floppy disks actually come in different colors now, (blue, green, yellow, red, grey, and I've even seen pink ones) so you don't need any special program to change the color of the plastic covering. (Is this really a serious question??????) Life is more painless for those who are brainless.

I do prefer the coloured diskettes ; ) If you're referring to a DOS/Win9x-ME bootdisk, then I suppose you mean coloured onscreen text & menus? That can be accomplished using the DOS ANSI console driver We've heard that a million monkeys at a million keyboards could produce the complete works of Shakespeare; now, thanks to the Internet, we know that is not true

Aha.. I see.... I think. :) jboy, leave it up to you to clarify things for me. LOL Life is more painless for those who are brainless.

Ah, well, the phrasing was a bit ambiguous, but nothing else seems (too) likely. On my first boring DOS machine, ANSI was kind of fun - this page looks like a good intro There are other ways, such as patching command.com or using an application - the old Norton had something like that as I recall, but ANSI will do the job We've heard that a million monkeys at a million keyboards could produce the complete works of Shakespeare; now, thanks to the Internet, we know that is not true

thanks jboy will check out the web page. when you think that you know it all! you know nothing

There's also the config.sys menu feature, menucolor - that might be more what you're after, as that takes effect before any drivers are loaded, and allows coloured text in the DOS multi config startup menu We've heard that a million monkeys at a million keyboards could produce the complete works of Shakespeare; now, thanks to the Internet, we know that is not true
