Wanted: MS-Dos 6.22 & Windows 3.1 floppies

scrappysphinx · 11 June 2010, 19:25

Hi all, i am looking to get a copy of MS-Dos 6.22 and Windows 3.1 on floppy.
I don't mind if you want to sell or if anyone has some i can borrow and then return that would be fine.
They are to install on my Amstrad Mega PC, the original 40mb HDD has them installed but i don't have the discs to install it on the newer 340mb hdd i've installed.
I have images but as i don't have any floppy discs i would like real floppies please. Must be floppies too (not sure if windows 3.1 came on cd) as the system has no cdrom.
Plus i would also like to have the originals to keep with the system.

Cheap as possible please

Thanks

Mike

Hi Scrappy,

I can't supply originals of these disks, but I can do some copies for you if no better offers are forthcoming.

msdos 6.22 was 2 disks if I recall and MS Windows 3.11 was about 7 disks or was it 11?

MS DOS 6.22 is 3 disks.

Don't install Windows 3.1, Windows for Workgroups 3.11 is considerably better and faster, and its 100% compatible. It's 8 disks.

I`ve got some originals you can borrow if you fancy a trip to Leicester.
