Dr. Dos CD Boot issues

Post by xXsupern00bXx »

When ever I try to boot from a CD I get this
"Starting Caldera DR-DOS..."
"EMM386 3.27 Copyright (c) 1992,1998 Caldera, Inc All right reserved"
Then it just freezes up there. Anyone have any idea on how I can fix this?

Bad burn maybe? Can you boot to CD with other boot disks?

Sounds like the drive then if you can't boot to stuff you used to.

Got a spare to swap and try?
