DesertFOXThank you, <a href="https://chitter.xyz/@JennyFluff" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@JennyFluff</a> ! This is really cool! You did an amazing job preserving these disks! Everything installed flawlessly on my virtual WfW 3.11. Appears to be a special "Star Trek" version of AfterDark 3.01. However, there are a several bad sectors on one of the disks' FAT, but these do not interfere with the setup process.<a href="https://techhub.social/tags/AfterDark" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AfterDark</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/RetroComputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RetroComputing</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/86Box" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#86Box</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Emulation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Emulation</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/DiskImageTool" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DiskImageTool</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/FAT12" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FAT12</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/FloppyDisk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FloppyDisk</a>

DesertFOXThat's s so cool! I had always wanted to add "Krusty's Fun House" for MS-DOS to my retro collection. I've had the floppy disk for years (thanks flyers_80!), but I could never find the correct manual to answer all those pesky copy protection questions.Tonight I found out, there's a beautiful PDF version of the correct manual within the current eXoDOS collection.

DesertFOXEveryone seems to hate MS-DOS 4, but I actually think it's pretty neat. I like the oldschool MS-DOS Shell with its separate file management section and all those crazy colours. I also enjoy the fact that it plays really nicely with Windows 3.0 and the system's 386 Enhanced Mode.

Excel 3.0a lief als letzte Excel-Fassung noch original unter Windows 3.0 und war außerdem das erste mit einer grafischen Symbolleiste! Dieses unglaubliche Feature wurde damals auch noch groß auf der Verpackung beworben!Hier ein perfektes Set der deutschen Vollversion mit 1.2MB, 5.25 Zoll KryoFlux Images. Natürlich wieder inkl. aller IMGs und sauberer JPG-Scans sämtlicher Datenträger:<a href="https://archive.org/details/ms-excel_30a_de" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://archive.org/details/ms-excel_30a_de</a>Viel Spaß und gute Nacht ihr Wahnsinnigen! 😉 <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/RetroComputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RetroComputing</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Excel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Excel</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Office" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Office</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Microsoft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Microsoft</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Oldschool" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Oldschool</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/FloppyDisk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FloppyDisk</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Disketten" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Disketten</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/86Box" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#86Box</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Emulation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Emulation</a>

DesertFOXHatte gestern einen eigentlich ziemlich hässlichen 720K Diskettensatz in der Post. Den Dingern sah man ihre 35 Jahre doch schon ziemlich an, aber die Optik war in dem Fall nebensächlich, denn das Auslesen per KryoFlux war dann eine wirklich positive Überraschung. Alle Datenträger waren absolut perfekt lesbar!Es handelt sich um die deutsche Vollversion von Microsoft Excel 2.1d. Diese Fassung von Excel wurde noch rein über MS-DOS installiert und lief auf Windows ab Version 2.x. Ziemlich historisch. Hier gibt es die kompletten Flux- und IMG-Images, sowie 300dpi Scans aller Disketten:<a href="https://archive.org/details/ms-excel_21d_de" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://archive.org/details/ms-excel_21d_de</a>Viel Spaß! 😉 <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/RetroComputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RetroComputing</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Microsoft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Microsoft</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Excel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Excel</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Windows</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Disketten" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Disketten</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/FloppyDisk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FloppyDisk</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/86Box" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#86Box</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Emulation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Emulation</a>

DesertFOXHatte heute Nachmittag eine echt schöne 5 1/4 Zoll HD Diskettenversion von Windows 3.0 in der Post. Das Auslesen per KryoFlux lief auch fast perfekt, bis auf ein paar unlesbare Sektoren auf insgesamt drei Spuren auf Diskette Nr. 5. Die Fehler beschränkten sich zum Glück auf eine einzelne Datei und so konnte ich das schnell und einfach per Hex Editor in Ordnung bringen.Den fertigen, sauberen und getesteten Satz an 1.2MB IMGs und 300dpi JPGs hab ich wie immer gleich mal ins Internet Archiv hochgeladen:<a href="https://archive.org/details/mswin_3.0_de" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://archive.org/details/mswin_3.0_de</a>Viel Spaß! 😉 <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/RetroComputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RetroComputing</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Disketten" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Disketten</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Windows</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Microsoft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Microsoft</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/90er" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#90er</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/KryoFlux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#KryoFlux</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/86Box" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#86Box</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Emulation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Emulation</a>
