I'm trying to make a USB external drive work in DOS to use Drive Image 2002. None of the drivers I have tried seem to work. Anyone with any idears?
If you are trying to make it work under XP it never will as XP doesnt have DOS. You need a pure DOS environment which means either MS-DOS 6.2 or Win-9X boot to DOS.
