Hi!!! :-) I agree with Michael! VMWARE is a far better emulation solution (in memory management and periferal handling eg. for USB devices)! I used to work with Michael's recommendations, but seems like VMWARE recently, released its VMWARE Server for free (NOT expiring). (free registration required). I show also related documentation, support forums and a beta maillist (for all products). A couple of related pages, can be found at: http://www.vmware.com/download/server/ and http://www.vmware.com/products/free_virtualization.html . OK, since I have installed FreeDOS on my HD, I don't know much of emulators, so I'm waiting responce from more experienced users. BTW, I show at VMWARE site many OS distributions available for downloading. Is there a FreeDOS one? Thanks!!!
