Hi, 
   I have a temperature / humidity sensor that sends frequency 
modulated data to the com port. The program collecting them 
runs under DOS (up to Win98). I can run two DOS Windows 
with two sensors without any problems from within Win98. 

Migrating to WinXP, I have tried to emulate DOS with DOSBox, 
VirtualPC, and VMWare but in all cases the data are wrogly 
interpreted in that the values are unreliable. This appears to be 
a timing problem. 

Does anybody know whether DOSEmu under Linux would do 
the job correctly? I am a LINUX beginner and would only try it 
when there is a good chance of success.....

Thanks a lot for hints, Dieter
