180kb
Super Micro Floppy
|
Following on from the previous 360kb micro floppy office attempt, I've now shrunk that even more. This is my latest attempt - a 180kb floppy image (IMA format) with 12 small Windows GUI programs. While there's still a focus on office applications I had to ditch the zip-unzip program for space reasons, so now all programs are simply the executables (no directory structure either as that took too much space). Other than that, there's still a Text Editor, Spreadsheet, Web Browser, Image Editor, File Manager and various system utilities etc. As there are only executable files in the IMA, the process to extract and use them is a little simpler. No programs need to be installed - just run the .exe files. To use in a virtual machine: * Mount the IMA file as floppy drive A: * Create a working directory on C: and then drop all programs into it To use in a physical machine: * Copy all the executables from the IMA onto a physical floppy of whatever size suits you and mount it Gode tider ! 12 small windows GUI programs for your enjoyment. I've tested all of these programs on an XP VM and they all work fine. Some will work with w9x through to Windows 10, but that's for you to test out. The only program with a dependency is the KaKeeware web browser that needs IE with ActiveX installed on the host machine. If you don't want to futz around with mounting an image file, I've also included for download a separate zip file with all 12 programs so that all you have to do is unzip the contents of that to a USB drive and then drag and drop the 12 programs from the USB drive onto your P3 Windows XP white box PC. |
