I have an ancient 32 bit CAD package that would not work on my 64 bit computer, but I downloaded DOSBox 0.74 and was able (with some fiddling) to get it to work. It ain't pretty, and I wouldn't recommend it for something that's used everyday, but for occasional use it works ok. Ed

ok problem solved if there is no other way - never looked into it because all my stuff is 32
I run my computers until they die and sometimes they last an awful long time - have lots of spares for them as well , Mick.

No worries here Zeph... Still have a `98 machine... somewhere. DOS disks in perm storage... somewhere. PM being composed...

Well,

A big thank you to MaKaw. I was also in a bit of a bind, and a little less than thrilled with using Partzilla etc.... for tracking down the information I needed when looking for parts. It's not ideal that the cross-referencing isn't available any more, but at least it means I will be spending a lot less time at 'other than Kawasaki' websites.

I agree that perhaps a thank you email campaign asking for the full functionality return would be good, and might just help it to happen. Who knows. We are all at least that much better off than a month ago. I also agree that the quality improvement in the diagrams is a welcome change.

Cheers,
Jon

Hey fellas - been thinking about it and i reckon Fuck it i will just make an ISO image for everyone to DL if you would like it - i have enjoyed being on this site and now it is time to show you how much i have appreciated it - Ok,
Should be available to DL in 24 hours - about 550 mb, Mick.

Great! That's the easiest and best way to share it .

Been playing with computers for a long time but this is first ISO image i have ever done - never needed to before.
Read today that the image made needs to be burnt with same program ? So am hoping just about everybody with a computer has Nero - i used version 8.Made image - burnt disc - spot on.
Does not seem to be anywhere i can UL a file like this except as an attachment ? - my connection is not fast so used Winrar 5.2 and got it down to 445 meg from 555 meg - Also did a 7Zip and got it down to 406 meg so looks like the one to use for this. Any comments before i UL it

You can create an account at Mega, and upload the file there; then you can share just the download link. My experience with Mega is that it's really fast and reliable, and the uploads do not seem to expire there.

Also, having the ISO file, you don't necessarily need to burn it into a CD to access the content. Through PowerISO you can set a virtual drive and mount the image there, providing full access.

Hope this helps

Thanks - Will try here first and if it looks like upload will take too long will check out Mega. Am expecting it will be an hour or 2 possibly.
Figured some of the members would have old computers in the work shed so cd would be perfect .
Will try in morning

Thanks for all your effort, Zephyrrider. You wrote that you hope everybody has Nero. Please pardon my ignorance, but what is it? Will we all need it to read the file?
