ironman14 Posted December 14, 2013 Posted December 14, 2013 Hello. I decided to install Windows NT 4.0 in Virtualbox, which came with SP1. I decided to upgrade to SP6a, so it is somewhat usable. But, since IE2 was too old to download programs, I am trying to find a way to put SP6a, IE4.01, and IE6 on Windows NT 4, so I could download a few things. However, I can't find anyway to get the files to the VM. I tried using shared folders, a CD (I burned the programs to a disk), and also an ISO I made. Some ISO files work, like the Guest Additions ISO. What should I try next?
ironman14 Posted December 15, 2013 Author Posted December 15, 2013 I tried Virtual PC 2007, which supports shared folders on Windows NT 4, but only with SP6a. Is there anyway to run an EXE from your host PC inside a virtual machine?

ironman14 Posted December 16, 2013 Author Posted December 16, 2013 Thanks but I already installed Windows NT 4.0 in Virtual PC and got it working.
