Hi,

Just wondering if anyone has had any success with this program? I can get it to install, boot up off of the floppy, and even recognize my SCSI CD-ROM however it doesn't appear to make a virtual HDD. That is when I try to access the C: drive in the virtual machine it tells me there is no such drive... Am I missing something?

Hi,
This may seem like a stupid question, but have you formatted the virtual drive? because the virtual drive acts just like a hard-drive, and before for can read it you have to set everything up.

I suggest using a windows9x boot disk or even a dos boot disk, and running format.

hope this helps

Thanx... However I already tried that... I ran both fdisk and format but the system (i.e. the virtual machine) tells me C: is an invalid drive... Any other ideas? frown

That's fine. However, I have setup an IDE virutal HD drive and this is the drive that is not working.
