HNY, Harry! Actually, the OTVDM readme/webpage says that it "can also run DOS executables (DOS emulator-like)." So trying to use it to run EDITOR.EXE seems reasonable to me. I did, and got the same result as you. Installing the HAXM driver -- see OTVDM.INI for the download link -- produced a different (more graceful) failure. Bottom line, though, I was not able to launch XyWrite or any of the other DOS programs I tried. OTVDM does run XyWin nicely, although, like Dave Garwood, I can't get it to print. (Not that I tried hard; I never really got along with XyWrite for Windows.) -- Carl Distefano cld@xxxxxxxxxx
