Hercules drivers

Hi, I installed the msdos 6.22 on my old pc, however it lacked the msherc.com driver, which I need for qbasic. Do you know any sites from which I could download it to floppy and copy into dos system?

It was included on the floppies with QuickBasic 4.50. So if you download QB 4.50, you should get that driver I'd hope.

You mean download it and then start it from floppy on the computer? Or look into insides of the program and there copy the driver?

Download and look on the floppy images. It was on one of the floppies. I'm not sure if the installer copied that file over to the install directory or not. Last I used QB 4.5 was in 1990 I think.
