OpenDOS boot disk doesn't seem to run in MS Virtual PC

Hello there ^^

When I try to run the OpenDOS boot disk from UBCD 4.0.1 or 4.0.2, this :

is all I get.

Yet it seems to run fine once burnt on a CD and booting on a real machine, so it should not be a big issue...

Yeah, I think OpenDOS has this unique property all along that it will run on real machines, but not in virtual machines. It kills VMWare as well.
