Re: 701C Modem: Doesn't work in DOS?
I don't know to what extent the various TPs are similar, but when I got a
380D, it included disk images for drivers for video, sound, cards, etc for
DOS/win3.1/win95/OS/2 and NT. When I got the machine, my interest was in
running OS/2, so I repartitioned the HD, and reinstalled win95 in a
smaller partition and the remainder in OS/2 - but I have the various other
OS disks. OS/2 runs dos and win 3.1, so those drivers were also installed.
