It really helps on VMware, because you have to: -Click middle screen to give focus to the virtual machine -Click Ok to accept the warning about mitigations performance (if you did not told, never show again) -Press F2 to go to the virtual BIOS In less than 1 second... maybe less. Avoiding forcing people to do that on WMwawre is great. _______________________________________________ Freedos-devel mailing list Freedos-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-devel
