Microsoft Word For DOS 5.5

edited July 2016 in Software
When I was installing MS Word for DOS 5.5, the Setup asked me for a:

Printer disk

to which the archive "MS Word for DOS 5.5" I have downloaded, had no printer disk image.

As a result, I had to force Setup to close instead.

Can anyone update the archive listed below?

Archive: Microsoft Word 5.5 (for DOS)
Mirror Used to download: Facilier

  • Please keep in mind that just because this forum lets you use colored text and large fonts does not mean it is a good idea to use them.

    Anyway, I have marked that archive as incomplete. There was actually a note in the database about the missing disk, but download specific notes are not currently visible to users.
  • Original MS Word for DOS 5.5 include 12EA of 5.25" 360KB or 6EA of 3.5" 720KB disks.
    Yes, PRINT Disk seems to be missing on 3.5" disk.
  • The complete Word 5.5a for Dos is still available from the following Microsoft site:

    http://download.microsoft.com/download/ ... 55_ben.exe

    This is a self extracting archive. You can just change the .exe to .zip to view the files.
    Just copy the files to an HDD directory or CD to install to Dos
    I just downloaded the file today and it includes all the printer driver folders.
  • I've uploaded untouched (unmodified) Disk 4 of Microsoft Word 5.5 for DOS (5.25-360k) on ftp.
    (Microsoft Word 5.5 for DOS (5.25-360k) (Disk 4) (Untouced Disk 4).zip)

    Already uploaded disk 4 is modified on disk 4 by SETUP.INI.

    Now I uploaded untouched Disk 4.

    SHA1:0513807a39c1bced45b8a03104d2f7febc18b341 / Disk 4
  • I also have 5.25" (360KB) of Microsoft Word 5.5A for DOS.
    But it is nearly same as version 5.5 except Disk 1 / Disk 2 / Disk 5.

    Both my 5.5 and 5.5A disk doesn't include Disk 12 of Optional 1 Disk, hehehe.
  • Thanks for the mentioning.
