Thanks to everyone who has been helping and giving advice for connecting
Windows.

I've tried Hyper-V and Virtualbox, but neither seem to be able to use a
serial connection properly for the Newton to sync or backup/restore.

I'm running into issues with Virtual PC since it's so old now. I'm trying
to host on Windows 10 using these instructions, but the installer fails

Here's a link to the installer:

Can anyone describe how they got the *.msu file to install on Windows 10?
Or can you detail your process?

Any help would be appreciated. I have the VMAdditions.iso extracted but I'm
stuck with the Stand Alone Installer.

Thank you!!
