San
Jose, CA -- Who says that you have to be a DOS person or a Windows
person? In fact, you don't have to put yourself in the camp of a single
operating system at all. VCOM has released System Commander® 3.0,
a utility which lets you add multiple operating systems to your PC.
Users can choose to install any combination of up to 100 operating
systems, including Windows 95, Windows 3.1, Windows NT, DOS, OS/2,
SCO Unix, Solaris x86, Linux, any flavor of UNIX, or any other OS
that runs on an Intel-based system. |

System
Commander takes the fear out of upgrading from Windows 3.1 to Windows
95, since users can maintain both until they are ready for a complete
transition. Gamers can run their favorite DOS games in their native
environment, and then turn to Windows 95 to access the hottest 3D
games on the market. Those who want to dabble in a UNIX platform can
do so without investing in a separate system. The utility is the only
way users can run several different language versions of a single
operating system. The applications of multiple operating systems are
virtually endless. |

|
System
Commander takes control of the PC before a new OS is run. This utility
protects the original OS from the predatory nature of new operating
systems, which try to seek and destroy existing OS files. Once multiple
OSes are installed, users are provided with a menu of possible choices
at startup so they can choose which operating system should be loaded. |
| |
|
|
| |
|
Unlike
problematic boot managers, System Commander does not require repartitioning
for its installation as it installs itself into the existing DOS or
Windows 95 partition. And, System Commander does not require repartitioning
to install operating systems like Windows 95, Windows NT, OS/2, or
DOS. These operating systems can all be installed in a single partition. |
| |
|
|
| |
|
For
MIS managers, developers or anyone who wants to directly control their
configurations, System Commander provides a boot-time editor that
allows you to change CONFIG.SYS, AUTOEXEC.BAT, or any of the Windows
.INI files before selecting an operating system. |
| |
|
|
| |
|
System
Commander also provides a time-out feature and adds multiple screen
savers. With the time-out feature off, System Commander waits for
the user to select the desired OS. If no activity occurs, the optional
screen saver activates after a preset interval. The utility is also
fully compatible with Microsoft's new optional FAT32 file system for
Windows 95. |
| |
|
|
| |
|
Version
3.0 also offers enhanced password security. The utility prevents booting
from either hard or floppy diskettes, without the sluggishness and
inherent risks of encrypted disks. Multiple users, each with their
own password, can use a single PC and be given access to only certain
operating systems. |
| |
|
|
| |
|
The
program works with systems that have up to 14 separate hard drives,
including SCSI, IDE, or EIDE devices. It takes less than 1 MB of disk
space, and uses no resident memory. |
