摘要:
This invention involves using an alternative driver that is located in a specified server on the Internet. For example, a person could take a floppy disk that is not compatible with their computer and transform it over the Internet through an alternate compatible driver. In order to do this, a special universal bit reader is located within the server. A second variant is that a bit reader would be located in a user's computer and it would be connected to a global server. So, all the files could be accessed through the Internet. This would allow to read and write data from/to a disk that was formatted on a different operational system. In order to solve a problem how to run applications that are not compatible to the operational system on a computer where this disk was inserted, the invention teaches the following approach. A universal driver on the server uses a program that looks for similar applications in a database server that contains a database of applications from different operational systems. The universal driver can identify what programs in the application are needed either reading names of programs on the disk or it can read a special table in which applications point to programs in different operational systems.
