I have a peculiar set up, this is a break down: A Comtrade 486DX2/66 (Ami Bios) with... Local Bus and EISA A Local Bus SCSI Adaptec Card with 2 scsi drives attached A Diamond Stealth Local Bus Video card with S3 chipset 16 megs of RAM (The SCSI card is a caching card with 2 megs of ram) 256k cache and all that good stuff a Future Domain 8 bit card (Controlling a Texel 265ms CDRom) Sound Blaster Pro Card (Can I use this at all now?) Is it possible to also run DOS at the same time without destroying the datat on 1 of my drives? I'd like to keep my files, and be able to throw a boot disk in so I can run DOS. Thanks... !
