    hello there,

    i have floppy images of Lotus 1-2-3 3.4A (3.5) e.g. disk1.img, disk2.img, disk3.img, disk4.img

    how install it inside vdos?

    since there is no option to mount an image file to a:\ in vdos without a physical floppy drive, i coped every file from all the .img file to a folder and mount it as a:\ or c:\, but when try to install the install.exe i am getting a back screen. is there any way to resolve this problem? i want to install lotus 123 3.5 for DOS inside vdos.

    my OS windows 10 pro x64

    sorry for my bad English and Thank you.

      Just copy the Lotus directory of your old system to the new one.

      I have also faced this issue.

      My solution was to perform the installation using DOSBox. Once the software is installed, I use vDos to run the application.

      For reference, https://itstillworks.com/install-multiple-dosbox-floppies-8647631.html shows how to install multiple DOSBox floppies.
