Dennis, Thank you kindly. Actually, I have to admit that I have already installed that FreeDOS-Fractint.ova into my VBox. When I type the command "dir" into it it shows FRACTINT along with the other normal FreeDOS files. But I still can't get it to RUN Fractint. Supposedly if I just type FRACTINT and then Enter, that should do it (right?)... but it doesn't. It's crazy, or maybe I am. But I'm not giving up; will write to David Riccio to seek tips. Thanks again, very much for your response. Knute
