CSI-DOS is an operating system, created in Samara, for Soviet personal computers Elektronika BK-0011M and Elektronika BK-0011. CSI-DOS did not support the earlier model BK-0010. CSI-DOS used its own unique file system and supported only color graphic video mode. The system supported both hard and floppy drives as well as RAM disks in the computer's memory. It also included software to work with music co-processor AY-3-8910(12) and Covox Speech Thing. There is a number of games and demonstration programs designed specially for the system.
The system also included a Turbo Vision-like API allowing simpler design of user applications as well as a file manager called X-Shell.
