I have immages of the install disks for Win311 and somewhere outside its
case a disassembled 486 with extra printer port needed by directionality
for use with IOMEGA zip.  I think it still has the 8 1mb memory cards
still plugged in.  Working when replaced.  Case was rusted so it went to
scrap.  Win98SE needs to install over existing win311 and also requires
boot disk to make work.  Although I have a iso if you have a DVD.  It
was on a small partition.  I am not sure where the sound and graphics
are for that old 486.  It was a DX2 66 last I ran it.
