I have loaded DOSBox for the express purpose of running DOS-based radio programming and other legacy DOS programs with my new Panasonic Toughbook laptop, running XP-Pro.
My desire would to have a shortcut on the desktop that would launch DOSBox, mount a specific drive letter with the directory in which the application resides (under "C:\Program Files\whateveritis\). Two of the applications will involve using the internal modem to connect to remote Highway Message Reader Boards for diagnostics and maintenance, through PROCOMM.
This is desired for each of about 8 or so applications that I am forced to continue using as Kenwood and Midland will not produce a windows version of their programming software for discontinued models of radios.....the radios we still use and are not allowed to replace due to budget. It's great to work for the State.......
I tried a few methods after reading the readme.txt, but am a radio tech first and a PC dude fourth or so......
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!!!
