USB from DOS for vaio?

Archived from groups: comp.sys.laptops (More info?)

Hello,

before trying - has any body tried to run the vaio PCG SR11K (the light
small one) with dos and connect to the US?.
Unfortunately we have some probs:
- CD drive was lost
- bluescreens appears - Harddisk was damaged


I did buy a new harddisk - but the bluescreens remain. The I did copy a
MSDOs on the harddisk- and yep it works- so at least I can work with WORD4
;-) but how to connect to the outer world?
If possible I would try to reinstall win2k or XP, but before the thing has
to proof that everthing is ok. I guess some memory or mainboard problems.
possibly dos is the only possibiliy to avoid bluescreen s...

any hints are highly appreciated...
