if you use Windows XP or Windows Vista under VPC, remember this- don’t use the OS CD that came with your computer to install it. or you will get this:

Now i will go really far back in history. All the way back to 1993 that is!
Before you install. you must install MS-DOS 6.0 or later or DR-DOS 7.0 or later. Refer to my post about MS-DOS for more info.
1. Start MS-DOS
2. insert disk 1 and type: a:
3. type setup
4. press enter three times when prompted
5. wfw should copy files then you should see a screen prompting you for some information. all of it is optional.
6. you will have to insert many disks then you should see a screen asking you if you want to install a printer. since there is not an easy way to explain how to get this to work, click no printer and click continue
7. click continue
8. if you get a prompt asking you about MS-DOS editor select it and click next. then click restart your computer
9. when you’re back to MS-DOS type win to start windows
10. and that’s it, but don’t forget to type win to start windows every time you want to use it!
