Copying file from PC to VPC?

Question

I'm running VPC 2007 and the OS is windows 3.1 I need to copy a C++ compiler from my real computer to the virtual one. How do I do this, it doesn't seem to read the .iso that I made. I don't have a floppy drive since I'm using a laptop.

Answer 1

You can drag files from your PC and drop them on the VPC. Windows 3.1 supported drag & drop, so (in principle) this should work.

Answer 2

In VPC 2007, click on the yellow folder in the lower left hand corner of the frame around your guest OS. This will let you map a folder on the host to a drive letter on the guest. Then in the guest you can access the mapped drive as if it were a network drive.
