These comments indicate the OP has installed Windows 3.1 on an iPhone!! The humanity!! Really? Is there a name for this type of hobby? I must admit I have a penchant for obscure GUI operating systems... so I must be honest... you reckon you could whack OS/2 or AmigaDOS on that sucka? Also, if this is all true, sorry I can't bear to watch it, I will though, surely the only sane thing to do is put Linux on there? :)

I remember that the factory recorded floppies were of better quality, like studio cassette albums didn't deteriorate much with use, especially if stored in their cases and not just left around. A few years ago I found a box of floppies with factory DOS programs. Each one was stored in it's own plastic case and the cases held in a case with 60 slots. Mostly obsolete business software, but there were 11 good games. Still have some of them running in Dosbox. Never had a problem with Windows reading the factory floppies, but about 20 of them were recorded personal discs and Windows was not able to read them. I have an older iPad that still works fine. I haven't played games like Jazz Jackrabbit in a long time. 😆 I even have a BT mouse and kb that should work fine. I wonder if I can find a BT Driver for DOS?

There was a time that software manufacturers tried to make their software as functional and versatile as possible. During the last decade this has totally changed to a policy to restrict as much a possible. Adding functionality is trivial, but all effort is put in allowing exactly what the manufacturers wants and restrict everything else. This it true for Windows and Apple. I am happy that Linux still adheres to the policy to enable as much as possible.

Gotta say a little prayer to OSS and indie developers, ‘cause just imagine the computing hellscape we’d be in without them.

You could also copy all the disks to a directory on your dosbox ‘C’ drive and run the setup from there. No need to create all the mount points. Windows 3.1 will install in a matter of seconds. I’ve done this before (on a regular PC). It’s also handy because if you make system changes that require the disks it’ll remember the install path and you don’t need to remount the disks.

I wonder if Apple would change their mind again. This year iSH finally got pushed to the app store (after the developer and a few other made a bunch of noise on social media and basically lobbied Apple). iSH literally lets you run x86 Linux executables and it even has a package manager, so I don't see why iDOS can't be allowed again.

u should do a video on why formatting a external drive on windows wont show up on apple macs i think it has something to do with the bit rate of the conversion for example if u convert ext fat on windows is different from doing it on a mac so there for cant be read on mac formated drives from windows but the funny thing is if u format a drive external on a mac to ext fat then it will show up and mount on both pc and mac i guess what im trying to ask is there a way to mount or make drives work that already been converted on windows work on mac without deleting and formatting on a mac ? and also finding the real issue to this problem

I don't think he can, since he has an i7-7700k, which doesn't support Windows 11. Never thought I'd see a 7700k on the incompatible list. Even running a VM of Windows 11 might not work. (All it says is that TPM 2.0 is required both on the host as well as the VM.) The only thing he can do at this point is upgrade his computer to run Windows 11.

@@seththebeatmxchine The biggest joke is Apple was pushing USB-C the hardest, to the point where it is the ONLY port available on their Laptops, if you want to attach anything which isn't USB-C, like a Monitor for example, you'll need an extra special apple dongle. The Lightning port had its benefits, but it has been superseded by USB-C in every way. They only keeping it on their phones because it is a proprietary standard, and everyone making accessories for it has to pay license fees. I'm not surprised they give you a charge cable which doesn't fit most fast charge adapters on the Market, since most of them still use the USB-A Port as outlet, and the more widespread USB-A to USB-C cable to connect to the phones.

By not giving you a charger they save tens of millions of not hundreds of millions in the long run but not having to provide one in box, make more money by offering a separate charger, AND is it's all under the guise of "protecting the environment". And they still make the brick that would be offered just sold separately to make more money. It's an image thing, it's marketing. It's a perfect ploy. Believe you me, these companies don't give one single fuck about the environment. These are the same companies that have fucking 12 y.o assembling their phones. And the other companies only followed suit because now they can get away with it because Apple's doing it and they get to save millions too. It's a crock of shit.
