Description

MS-DOS 7.1 is a version of MS-DOS made by Microsoft in 1997. This version of DOS was never officially released as a standalone version, and was instead used in Windows 95 OSR 2 and Windows 98. As such, this bootleg attempts to make MS-DOS 7.1 easier to install and utilize as a standalone OS without having to use Windows 9x.

The OS itself is very flexible and has three installation types:

  1. Full, which includes several utilities
  2. DOS commands only, which only includes a basic install of DOS
  3. And Minimal, which only contains the absolute essentials.

You can also optionally install add-ons which will add several common DOS tools, as well as enable a Windows 9x-esque boot screen.

Other than that, most of the features are stock DOS.
