Hello All,
(Tried Searching But Seems To Be A Premium That I Can't Do) I have been trying to figure out a which is the best way to get XP working on Win 10. I'm a electrician in MI and I want to try and hook up to old processors but I have a Win 10 Laptop. My machine is:
Lattitude 5420 Rugged
My Electrical Engineer has been trying to get me updated where we can stop using the old IPT's (basically they are old XP machines on wheels, very archaic to say the least). I need to be able to hook up to PL2, 484, and 984. I'm currently able to hook up to SLC 503 and 505 (with PIC Box) along with the 5000 processors.
He mentioned Virtualbox, VMWARE, and DOSbox as possible solutions. I would like to know from you experts and your experience which route is the best for this task. I personally was thinking Virtualbox but do not know what limitations I will run into.
I want to be able to run Taylor, Procomm, and the xp windows version but i can't think of the name of it at the moment.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
