BrandonMy progress today.
I booted my Core 2, to work on Fun500, and it was not working, I kept pressing power and it worked, but not for long, that pretty much killed my interest in working on it, so I got it going long enough to move the code to my Macbook, and decided that Win3.1 on my thin client would be enjoyable and run FB well. It took me a few hours to finally install FreeDOS, to find it doesn't support win3.1, so I messed around and got dos 6.22, which didn't like my huge 4gb cf. I finally decided against Windows, and to use FreeDOS, so I have it all set. A lot of things are hard to do right now, but once I get the Fun500 5 API working, I can try to improve my user experiance. I need a GUI with a good desktop and filemanager, are there any?

BrandonWin3.1 Up and Running!!
I guess I needed the /S parameter, and it works. I'm gonna install a shit load of software, to get it ready for FB development.

If all you want is desktop and filemanaging, GEM actually works really well, and fits on a single floppy :).

I am feeling pretty gangster right now, posting this on my thin client from Windows 3.11, in IE5 :P, I have AIM 1.0.414 and I'm chatting with Jason. I think I will work tomorrow on getting a different video card driver, 640x480x4 isn't the best :P
