Hi CaptainHaplo, thanks for reply, and also to the guys above who are also trying to help.

Unfortunately, had to work Saturday and Today, hence delay in reply, Should have been off.

I have DOS-on-USB version 71 but get the impression this is for Windows7, maybe wrong of course.

This comes with Instructions on how to Install but can only get as far as:-

Instruction 18. After a reboot, you will hopefully come to a DOS-style screen that will tell you that DOS-on-USB has loaded, However, all I get is a Black DOS looking Screen that says Nothing snd won't allow me to type anything in to it.

Does anybody know Please if there is a DOS 5.0 or 6.2 Version of DOS-on-USB.

I am trying to run an old game called Silent Hunter Commanders Edition that runs Perfectly well on my Computer, used to work on my Laptop, but now Does'nt, which is where I want it.

Have tried copying ALL the Files across to my Laptop but without any success.

Any more Help would be Gratefully appreciated.

Many thanks

Paul

P.S Not looking to Format and reinstall Windows, unless absolutely neccessary, because everthing else on LAPTOP and COMPUTER are running fine and Don't want to lose it all.
