Installing or Running DOS on Inspiron 7706
Hi,
Is it possible to run or natively install MSDOS on this machine? I'm not talking about DOSbox or any Virtual machines. I want to boot up natively in DOS either from the internal drive, or an external USB HDD or Floppy or CD? I think the BIOS says it doesn't support LEGACY, so am I out of luck?
Thanks...

It's not possible without using virtualization, no. If you must run a DOS version, you need a system old enough that it still has support for CSM/Legacy mode -- a UEFI only system will not do the job.

How Unfortunate. So I can't even boot up from a USB FLOPPY or HDD? Oh well, thank you for the info....
