I Need Virtual A & B diskettes emulated on the hard drive, Windows XP. I have an old program that loads from A and uses data on B. I'm wondering what DOSbox might do for this situation.

Mount a somefolder
Mount b somefolder
And see what it does (you may need to add -t floppy to the end of each line)

Alternatively, look for Virtual Floppy Drive - but DOSBox is probably the better way to go.
