But by assuming that the art of dual binaries (for win32 and DOS) was never really popular, I somehow stopped reading after 'Windows'. still better then this only IDE will work bullshit ;) > EXE is the file format for Windows (and OS/2) as well as DOS, you know. it's not. I know. but it's a file format that can transport both a DOS and Windows executable in the same file. so for Stephanos: get a copy of RUFUS for Linux. this will make a bootable FreeDos stick. add the BIOS updater to this stick.
