Status:
- I've got Sun's Virtual Box instaleed on an XP PC and it is working.
- I've got DOS 6.2 running under VirtualBox and it is working...
- but VirtualBox doesn't support the parallel printer port
- Now I want to put VPC on the machine...



My Question:
- Should I uninstall VirtualBox first?

(I hope not as it is at least an almost working reference with the old
custom DOS application I'm trying to get working)

Thanks for any help

Yes, you can't, but it would probably be smart not to run them at the
same time. If you do want to run them at the same time and you have
hardware virtualization, turn it off in one of the virtualization
products.

That should be "Yes, you can"!
