Hi all, does anyone have any experience using Virtualbox to run older programs? I have a Dazzle Capture device that I want to use with a Sony Handycam but the software won't run on Win 11.

I've used virtualbox for years. I'm running win98, XP and win 7(32bit) as virtuals.

I started all this because Canon failed to produce 64bit drivers for my scanner when I changed to a new PC running Win7(64bit). So I run the scanner on a virtual host using either XP or Win7(32bit). USB and other hardware is passed through the physical host to the virtual fine.

I got the program installed, but sadly Microsoft removed the downloads for the ISOs needed to install Windows in the VM. I'll have to find another way around it

Sent from my Nokia XR20 using TapatalkI managed to get the win 7 iso from Microsoft last year. The other iso's I got searching torrents. What OS do you want?

Either Win 7 or XP. I have discs and keys for both, just can't install them via a DVD drive.

I'll have a look to see if I still have the iso, if not you can have a copy of my virtual host.

I've sent you a virtual host. See DM. If you've got VB installed just double click on the vbox file
