[comp.sys.ibm.pc.misc] MS-DOS vs. IBM DOS, help wanted

ghuang@umvlsi.ecs.umass.edu (Guyang Huang) (08/02/90)

Hi There, I need some technical help again.

I've tried to upgrade my dos version on my IBM AT 286 clone. I have a
MS-Dos 3.3 currently and I got an IBM Dos 4.01 from a friend. I had
problem to upgrade since these two dos have some difference. But I don't
want to spend more than $120 to buy a MS-dos 4.0. Is there any way to
upgrade a Ms-dos with an IBm Dos without re-formatting my hard drive
first? I like the dos 4.01 very much but just hesitate to rebuild my
hard drive. Any suggestions are more than welcome. Thanks in avance.
