DSS 8 Software Install
« on: September 05, 2005, 09:50:39 PM »
Well, I spent the weekend backing up all my floppy disk to DMS files so I could burn them to CD-ROM. The floppies were getting old and I was worried about loosing some of them, and I did. One of the main losses was the software for my DSS 8. Any idea where I can get the disk anymore? The links on the GVP-M site are broken.

Other than that, I made out quite well, only had other game that had a bad disk. Amazing considering some of the disk were getting close to 20 year old.

I uploaded the DMSed install disk to Installer's Heaven about two months ago. Maybe it will pop up there soon.

I have an original that is still working. I can send one to you. I think I have an ADF image as well if you'd prefer that.

Hey guys

Just saw this thread. I just picked up a GVP Dss 8+ with no software or manual. If someone can help me out with either please let me know! Installer heaven does not have it!

I still have the disk image somewhere in my mailbox. I'll put it online on my site. Check the searchpage, enter 'dss8' and you will be provided with the software.

I have version 3 and a printed manual. I can get the disks transferred to images tomorrow, but I don't have the time to scan the manual.

Oops. Scratch that. I have a DSS8+, which includes three disks labeled "version 3.0 upgrade."

Would you be interested in selling the manual and disks to me? If not images are cool, and maybe sell just the man? :) Up to you..

@ Tenacious


Thanks for the link.. I think DSS8+ came with 2 disks though??
