      TZUTC: -0400       MSGID: 2175.windowsb@1:2320/105 23909d19       PID: Synchronet 3.18a-Linux May 24 2020 GCC 7.5.0       TID: SBBSecho 3.11-Linux r3.173 May 24 2020 GCC 7.5.0       CHRS: ASCII 1       Howdy!,              Before I got this XP computer, the computer I used had DOS/Win3.1 on it       running on a 486 CPU.              I was using a SyQuest ez-135 External Removeable Disk Drive to make Backups       that were Saved on several Cartridges.              The ez-135 was connected to the 486 with a Parallel Port cable.              The newer XP computer didn't have a Parallel Port so I kept the ez-135       on the 486 and I used it on the 486 Off and On to make Backup's of the       C:\ and D:\ HDD's.              One day I broke the Loading Door on the Drive.              I took it to a Shop but it couldn't be fixed.       I wasn't about to make a Backup using a bunch of 1.44MB Floppies so the       ez-135 became a BOAT ANCHOR sitting on top of the 486.              Some Years later, a Neighbor told me He saw a SCSI SyQuest ezflyer230mb       Drive listed on EBay and the Drive came with a SCSI Card I could put in the       XP box.              I knew the ezflyer230 could Read/Write ez-135 Cartridges, but I did't have       a National Charge Card so I paid Him some cash to order that ezflyer230       Drive for me.              I have been thinking about Reading the latest BackUp I made on the 486, and       Saving it on the XP box and then Burn the BackUp to a CD-R that I could put       in the 486's CD Drive if I needed to Restore the BackUp for it.              I have both "Innotek Virtualbox" and "DOSBOX" on My XP pc and I have thought       for a long time to use one of those Programs to Read the latest Backup I       made on the 486 and place it on a CD-R Disk.              Does Anyone want to help me decide which Program would be the BEST to use.       Thank You!              73 de Ed W9ODR . .              ... For what I lack in my head I have to make up for with my feet.       --- MultiMail/MS-DOS v0.49        * Origin: capitolcityonline.net * Telnet/SSH:2022/HTTP (1:2320/105)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 90/1 120/340 601 123/131 226/30 227/114 702 229/101       SEEN-BY: 229/424 426 452 664 1014 240/5832 249/206 317 400 292/854       SEEN-BY: 317/3 322/757 342/200 633/280       PATH: 2320/105 261/38 320/219 221/1 280/464 229/101 426           |
