I have an old laptop that runs Windows 3.1 I think. Will Direct Scan work on this setup? I think Turbolink is too fancy now for this old setup but if I recall correctly Direct Scan will work in a DOS based environment? Yes/ No??
With a 386 you probably won't get the full 18.1 screens per second, but it should work fine otherwise. You might want to just reformat the HD and load only DOS on it to free up some space and make it run a little faster.
