This above trick will come in handy, when you have a non-bootalbe install disk, or using windows 2x and 3x (copy all files from floppy's into 1 directory to not switch floppy's).

But besure its partitioned and formatted with your file system.

Ok, its been a month, pretty busy with testing.

I have a subdomain on betaarchive were you can find the Collection Book now.

If you want it in .pdf, you can ask me to make a version for you.
Please keep your Windows Collection Book at hand, because you will find only a few disks on the site now, i am planning to add the lists, but my skills in html needs a brush up, so keep checking.

EDIT:
Totally forgot the adress (but its easy to guess).

I'm confused, does BIOS stand for something other than Basic Input/Output System?

If not, what does it have to do with dates?

It doesn't. However, you can use it to set the Time/Date of your PC, and the book contains the dates you should use when installing some betas (some betas require specific dates to install correctly ;) )

I am converting it into this website (its online now with Windows 1x to ''neptune''), only in IE its not displaying right, i forgot these: &nbsp (or something like that for empty tables).

I have Windows NT 3.1/3.5/3.51 ready here, working on 4.0/2000/xp/sv2003/vista/sv2008/homeserver/7 this weekend.

Also i have on the homepage a link to another website containing my questbook, (there is a link for returning to the MWCB).

Screenshots of ''7'' - 6519 and Vista - 3683, more coming, i am now focusing on the tables.

A very big update just completed!

All information pages and Windows Builds pages are available.
If a cell is not filled, there is no information available or at the Windows Vista/Server 2008/7 builds a serial key box is left empty because there is no serial needed.

And on the RETAIL builds i DO NOT provide SERIALS!.
Enjoy the site, minor updates will happen and more screens will follow, ones i made them and uploaded.

Requesting of screenshots can be done on the copyright page with the forum provided, only completely filled in forms will be processed.

And please leave a note in my questbook.

Thanks for visiting my site.
(Any misinformation?, please inform me at djrobjansen@gmail.com with subject: Misinformation at djrob.betaarchive.co.uk).

New!.

On some members posts and recomendation about having a good navigation, i have added one.

And i have ported the old site into the new one, but the links at the bottom are broken (on the old pages).

Sneak preview availible at the Microsoft Internet Explorer section.

Only i need a good and easy script to integrate thumbnails.
Because some of you are on dial-up or low speed internet the loading of the screenshots is taking very long.

Sorry for the down time now.

I have discovered a fatal error in my website.
I used \ in stead of /.

I am now reuploading all pages and folder so it going to take a while.

The Windows ''7'' and Internet Explorer site are in the new design, in the next few days i am going to port Windows 1.x series (10/101/102/103/104) to my website, information and screenshots

And again i am sorry for any down time and for your trouble.

EDIT:
I have edit all my previous post in this topic and deleted the signature.

EDIT2:
Just completed and my website is back online

New updates.

Got the Windows 1x, 2x, 3x, nashville, neptune, 7 and IE in the the new design.

Not for all windows version are screenshots available.

In the course of a few weeks/months i will be transferring the otherparts or the website to the new design and then upping screenshots.

If you have seen a gallery without screenshots and you have them, please send them in .png format with no watermarks as big as the page but just a small name in the right corner (of proverbially no watermark).

I will make them into thumbnails and adding them to the screenshot gallery's.

I see a lot a visitor from the united states and europe mostly, also from asia and australia and south america.
Thanks for visiting my site, i hope you got the information you wanted and keep checking back for changes!.
