  2. What do those of us... on The Death of DOS and BIOS Updates? · · Score: 2

    Without Floppy drives do? I haven't had one in a while, and all the utilities that supposedly let you create bootable CD's always say "Make a boot floppy and put it in the drive" Anyone have any tips for a guy who just doesn't have a working floppy drive. I currently Dual-Boot 98se/XP just to have a place to flash my bios and junk. :)

    I know you're trolling but...


    The classification of a CPU as either RISC or CISC is as outdated as the Classification of an IP-address as either Class-A or Class-C.
