Megatouch Emerald 2 Image Question
Megatouchmike:
--- Quote from: Rolges on June 23, 2021, 03:27:26 pm ---I was wondering about that because it looked alot like DOS.
I ordered a 128GB Sata SSD and a IDE converter Card.
Excuse me for this "stupid" question but I never worked with Merit Games before. I'm going to install the SSD and try to boot it via an external Disc Drive and the 2 files I have.
I got those two iso files but they are only about 600kb each, how does this work with the original data being somewhere aroung 6GB. Something doesn't match up in my opinion.
Sorry for those questions, I was like 6 years old when the machine came out. This old system is pretty "new" for me :laugh2:
regards,
Rolf

I've spent enough time trying to install the old DOS versions from CD to know that it's not worth the effort. I have an Emerald drive image saved that I can share with you. If you have a SATA -> USB adapter and a Dropbox/Onedrive/etc I will upload for you so you can write it to your SSD.

megatouchmike knows what he is talking about. If you dont already have a sata to usb adapter, order one. They are pretty cheap and good to have on hand when you need to copy/write/edit something on a internal 2.5 (aka laptop sata drive).
