Yes, in a virtual machine. 64bit X86 CPUs will still execute 16 bit X86 instructions, but you need the environment in which that 16 bit stuff will run. To run FreeDOS, you would need to run Virtual Box or the like to provide the 16 bit support. The best solution would be a "Live CD" version of FreeDOS that could be installed to and booted from a CD or USB stick, but there isn't one. The current available versions are all installers to let you install FreeDOS on a machine. > Thanks, > Kare ______ Dennis https://plus.google.com/u/0/105128793974319004519 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Meet PCI DSS 3.0 Compliance Requirements with EventLog Analyzer Achieve PCI DSS 3.0 Compliant Status with Out-of-the-box PCI DSS Reports Are you Audit-Ready for PCI DSS 3.0 Compliance?
