DOS apps locking up & Kicking users out - ver 4.3.16

Post by shark90 »

I have some old DOS-Based applications written in clipper that are hosted on a server and that are used by multiple people simultaneously. When the applications are accessed using non-virtualized 32-bit windows xp pro computers, everything runs smoothly. However, when more than one person access the dos applications using virtualized windows XP guests set up on 64-bit Windows 7 pro, the applications start locking up and people get kicked out of them. Does anyone have any pointers as to what might be causing this? I have tried enabling and disabling VT application at the bios with no success. Any pointers? I am using Virtualbox version 4.3.16.

Realistically, I don't think you'll get any answers here. You may be the only person in the world who's even able to reproduce the (extremely vague) problem.
