Note that running a laptop with no battery is not necessarily a good
idea - some laptops rely on the battery to act as a voltage regulator.
Running a laptop without its aku pack is how I fried a RAM bank in my
Toshiba T1100 a couple of years ago. I realized too late that the power
supply was delivering a much higher voltage than what the laptop
expected, and needed to be brought down by the battery not to damage
anything. More recent constructions are probably sturdier, but one
should be careful nonetheless.

I will try to explain more properly. I plugged in my Laptop. Pushed down
the power button and nothing happened. I cleaned up and I did not found
anything leaked or broken. I think there is a problem with power supply
or some circuits. I will keep finding. I have also a battery pack for
that Laptop too but I am not using since those batteries are way old to
handle all operations and may explode.

Hello
I want to ask if FREEDOS will run on Intel Pentium old-school PC from
2002 and if it will work properly if this pc have 256 mb of ram.
I have a old IBM ThinkPad from 1998 and it is great computer. But it
is not working. Where I can fix it?
Well, as others already mentioned, there is no reason why FreeDOS
would NOT run on such a PC. More RAM that you would probably need, but
not a problem either.
What however is a problem here is that "it is not working" is not a
proper problem description. You need to be far more
precise/descriptive of what exactly you are trying to do and what the
results are. We can not look over your shoulder, and there simply is
not enough information to even make an educated guess...
