[Chris Brooks]

Can you run a DOS based app in a windows 2000 environment?

 

[Chris Brooks]

oops, that's a server 2000 environment.... Thank in advance.

Ask the application developer.

In general, the answer is Yes you can. The apps will run in a VDM (Virtual
DOS Machine). However, you might encounter problems if the you do not have
the drivers for the h/w which the apps might require. If you are interested,
you can refer to the following articles for a detail explanation of how this
works.
