In windows 2000 the DOS emulator is just another user level
process which is subject to pre-emptive multitasking and does not
have kernal level access. If your DOS application is accessing
hardware, using DMA or something, then you are probably dead
in the water. I guess it is impressive that the app did not just
crash outright. Without the source code there is not much you
can do. Search the web for DOS W2K. There are quite a few
sites geared towards making old games run in the DOS emulator
when these games access graphics hardware.
Wakeup in the morning and kick the day in the teeth!! Or something like that.
