    https://i.cubeupload.com/Z72egQ.gif for the screen shot/capture from my
    brand new VirtualBox VM's 2 GB virtual HDD (already formatted and
    rebooted from its virtual 3.5" bootable floppy disk) on my old updated
    64-bit W7 HPE SP1 PC. I am using the files from https://winworldpc.com/download/67e2809d-c3a3-27e2-80ba-e280ba11c3a4 web
    page. What's wrong? :(

    Thank you in advance. :)

    Off topic for vbox, but I did manage to get a Windows 95 instance
    running on 86BOX a few weeks ago remembering dot-matrix printers. There
    is a download link at the bottom of https://supratim-sanyal.blogspot.com/2020/11/network-shared-dot-matrix-printer-emulation.html
