Solve : Windows 1.04 freezing and not working?

Answer»

When I try and press enter on something, it won't work. After I move the arrow keys around and try a couple more times it freezes. How do I fix this? I'm USING VMWare Fusion 7 and MS-DOS 6.22.Have you checked into this info here?: https://communities.vmware.com/thread/93983?tstart=0 Quote from: DaveLembke on July 21, 2016, 08:05:32 AM

Thank you very much!

For anyone else having this problem, it was MS-DOS 6.22. MS-DOS 5.0 works fine. I don't know why... Maybe 6.22 is incompatible with 1.0? Quote from: Jacob42 on July 21, 2016, 01:03:53 PM

Isn't that what that thread was basically saying.  Windows 1 was originally created to run on top of MS-DOS 2. Quote from: Squashman on July 21, 2016, 01:17:39 PM

Yeah, I'm a little amused that you're using MSDOS of a far later period to run Windows of that vintage.

I haven't TRIED it myself mind you, but I would have expected EVEN MSDOS 5 to break many aspects of Win 1
