Thanks for the DOSBOX info. I had heard there were ways to run a DOS program on Win8/10 but it sounded like I would need to use some division of my hard drive. I am definitely not computer literate and since Dos went away I find it hard just to move my files/pictures around so you probably can get the idea.
Thanks for all the help. And the idea of using a thumb drive to transfer and store the programs. Now if I can get that far with my old floppy drives including the Original Necwires2 from Roy Lewellen.
