Maybe a DOS box and an emulator is a different kind of area. In a DOS box, you will access the RTC of the host. A VM emulates the RTC which is under full control of the OS in the VM. What about programs using CPU ticks for time functions ? I'm not an expert for details about this in deep. I only have my experience with different emulators, as I'm using them privatly and at my work. > Yes, FDAPM good program, congratulations to Eric. :) Yes. Felizidades de mi tambien ;-) I like the FDAPM really.
