Hello Kaj,

my suggestion would be:

Simply forget all those DOS ´emulations´ and configure your new system
with dual-boot (i.e. use a boot-manager) -
one option to start your WinXP, and the other to start plain DOS.
That´s certainly the best and most stable way to run DOS programs!

Best regards,
Franz.
