Has anyone heard of any programs which allow you to run CP/M 2.2 programs
under MS-DOS on PC's. I found one which was supposed to emulate a
Z-80 and CP/M 2.2 on GEnie, but it does not work. Are there any others
out there?
Thanks in advance,
Scott

Have you tried RUN CP/M by Micro Interfaces Corp., or Media Master Plus from intersecting concepts? The only problem with either program is that you cannot run Z-80 code, and that you need to replace your 8088 with a V-20. Within those limitations, you should be able to get by.

The Media Master Plus product referred to by Ari Davidow in his note from the 1st does NOT require a V-20. If the V-20 is not there, it does software emulation of the 8080 and Z-80 instruction set, at speeds that might best be described as 'slowly' and 'very slowly'. But you would need the V-20 only if you need performance as well as the ability to occasionally run the programs.
