Well here's my first post for help. I'm new at DOS, and find it rather amusing. It's old, but new to me. Right now my goal is to make more room on my Compaq Portable II hard drive. This computer was owned by a big tech consulting lab and has 413 user files (16928768 Bytes) of what may be cool stuff to look at... they worked on NASA, defense projects, etc. I'd like to check some of it, but I don't know how to open the files yet, and I need the space.
I just discovered XTPRO on it (xtree) and it lookd like I can use it to delete some directories, but I don't know if some may be needed by the system. Which of the following directories should I not delete:
Comm
CS12
TRaD
Word5 (I don't plan on writing letters - but may need to use a .txt)
WP
Thanks Group!
Storage: One 360K 5.25-inch disk drive, One 20Meg hard drive
CPU: Intel 80286 @ 8MHz
RAM: 640K
DOS: 3.31
