Hi
 
−
 
 
−
I don't know what program you are trying to run but if DBOX isnt working try using Virtual PC

−
You will need your original DOS disks and Windows disks would really be an advantage as you need to install the additions CD to it via Windows.
 
−
 
 
−
Virtual PC is free and it is free to use.
 
−
 
 
−
When set up correctly it will allow for access to your virtual drives from your Host machine, this way you get the best of both worlds.
 
−
This is a business device, as there is absolutely no Direct3D or direct draw support.

Hope this helps
