does 2004's extensions work on virtual PC 2007? sounds interesting.....altough writing a driver would be quite fun, i have some other DOS-related projects i'm involved in and it is really painfull to work on these without shared folders...
WOW, i've found that i have a installer for the 2004 version of virtual PC....in fact, 2004 was the first one that was made freeware by microsoft....i have used it in work, porting some pascal application (which communicates with a ISA card)...this was near jan/2006 as far as i can remember On 7/5/07, Norbert Remmel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Daniel, > > > i'm also in the quest of writing > > a driver for FreeDOS in order to allow one to use the shared folders > > (it seems that no VM has shared folders for FreeDOS at all...at least > > in my experience: VirtualBOX, VirtualPC and VMWare don't have > > it) > > > VirtualPC used to have it in the past. > Go and get VirtualPC 2004.
