-> Do you have these 3 files (fidomsg.wcx, pxsrv.dll, pxnl.dll) in your
-> WC5 root folder on BOTH PC's (W10 & XP-VM)?  also do you have px.ini in
-> WC5/PXDATA directory on both systems?

I was premature, it did not give an error after I made sure 3 files were
in wc5 root folder (shared folder for both computers) and I edited the
px.ini file by removing the drive designation, just leaving folder info.
It gives me prompt to enter the fido address, which I do and then it
takes forever and comes back to the prompt for fido address, like it
couldn't find the nodelist I guess.
