NT3.51 actually came on CD!? I expected it to be a

stack of 50 or so floppy disks lol. Smiley Happy

Yepp - with 3 :smileyalert: boot disks. AFAIR you were able to order a floppy version too.

I guess I'm getting hung up on VMware's definition of "clone source images" when they could state "clone source physical machine"...

anyway, good luck emegen.

esiebert7625 - I'd love to see MS-DOS run in a VM with a 3Ghz CPU and 1GB RAM in your museum. Why have 640K, when you can have 1GB!! Smiley Wink

you know what would be kind of fun is to try and do an upgrade from NT 3.51 all the way to windows 2003 server or something like that Smiley Happy

640k looks like we have to pull out the old Qemm, or 386max Smiley Happy

What about PC Tool v4.21... I had Xtree Pro and later Xtree Gold just about on all my workstations and even on my UNIX i386 and SunOS servers...

My first "proof of concept" for VMWare was by creating a MS-DOS 6.22 virtual installation, loading a TCP/IP stack - think it was Novell's - and surfing the company intranet on Lynx... After that Win98 and the rest followed.
