CDRW + win3.1
does anyone know of software either free or trialware that functions under win3.1? I have a customer who insists on using a duron 1.1 with 32mb and a 40x cd writer with dos 6.2 and win3.1 as his OS.
he will eventually be upgrading the o/s, except he first has to get new payroll software as the one he uses now only works under win3.1.
-
What make is the CD writer? let me know and I'll dig around some more. There are some matsumi drivers
<b>here.</b> I have no idea if they'll work.
-
CDRwin for Dos
I am amazed and thanks OC!
-
We've tried some of those mitsumi drivers in similar situations, and they don't seem to recognize anything much faster than a 12x writer..boy, with that processor that machine must really fly on 3.1:bor: Maybe he needs a dual boot os with a partition shared for both os's to access for data.
-
No problem Noo.
Thought about dual-booting that baby, so he can stlll use his accounts software?
Or maybe an XP compatibility mode?
-
Nice! I'll keep that on my disk o' tricks!:thumbs:
-
its an LG drive, an gce-8400b to be exact.
I just fininshed downloading cdr-win for dos and am about to try it out. thanks NooNoo
-
no go. the software works fine, but customer will never figure it out without a gui (manager of a local resturant).
anyone know of a dos/win3.1 package with a gui?
-
Only guess is a really old copy of Nero, or summin, but that probably wouldn't work with the drive.
Sorry, got me there - how's about the dual boot idea?
-
customer ended up taking as is. he will install 98 on it later and hope that it dosn't wack all his data. I re-assured him that it shouldnt touch his data as long as he does not do a clean install, but if he really wants, to bring it back later and I can back up his data on one of my hard drives before he starts the windows install.
Thanks for trying guys and gals!
