1. the OS | |
FreeDOS 1.2 Make any of your USB drives bootable. You can do it by getting an image from freedos.org but Rufus make it much more easier: rufus.ie. |

3. the Assembler | |
flat assembler You can compile comfortably from FASMD editor by pressing F9. To run FASMD you need DPMI host, the best one is CWSDPMI r7, you can find it here: sandmann.dotster.com/cwsdpmi put it into your AUTOEXEC.BAT with this option: CWSDPMI.EXE -p Download the assembler from here: flatassembler.net. |

5. the Debugger | |
Open Watcom Debugger 1.9 To run WD.EXE you need a lot of memory, don't forget to include HIMEMX.EXE and JEMM386.EXE in CONFIG.SYS as a device. a mouse driver, like CuteMouse is useful too. Download the debugger from here: wd.zip. As a bonus here is my latest custom SETUP.DBG file, grab it! |
