Hi Karen

 

http://windows.microsoft.com/en-au/windows-8/hyper-v-run-virtual-machines is
a link to Hyper-V, the replacement for the Win 7 Virtual PC but does not
include the free XP - you would have to buy and install XP in a virtual
machine you created.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Running DOS in Win 8

 

I have an opportunity to convert an RBase 4.5 application to
windows.  Woo hoo!  I love converting these old systems!

Problem is, the laptop I use now has 64-bit windows 8 on it.
So far, I haven't had to touch DOS so it hasn't been a problem.
I would sure love to do the conversion on this laptop and not have
to fire up my backup XP computer.

I know I could research this, but I'll try the lazy way first.  Does
anyone here have some recommendations of the best way to
run RBase DOS on this OS?   

Thanks for the ideas!

Karen
