Howdy

I am trying to install Works for Workgroups 3.11 from a Bundled CD and don't have a functional boot disk for the process. Any ideas where I can get a boot disk, and, any suggestions as to how to do this??

WfW 3.11 is a GUI not an Operating System, therefore it is recommended that MS-DOS 6.22 Operating System is installed first.

On a side note dual posting on the same/similar topic is not welcome in this forum, you did read the Forum Rules I presume ?

As to dual boot , well W95 will try to overwrite MS-DOS/W3.xx, though a 3rd party boot manager will overcome this limitation easily:
