  I could never figure why  windows only
expected 1 drive -- C: 
??? winders defaults to C: but I've installed it as other.  The gotcha
is the default boot in many bios was C: is first hard drive and
also default hard drive boot.

 When I used dos the problem was pached DOS's to
support
more than 32 MEG of data. My gripe with windows it does not
support back of  the system, but only what it thinks you need
backed up. DOS you could back up. 
??? using W95B I never had problems with backup (aka hackup and destroy)
(is was an instal time option). Under win 3.1 There were both backup for
dos and winders if properly installed (an option!).
