legacy DOS editor hangs VM

Description
launching ET.EXE (Renamed MED.EXE) inside windows guest (tested windows XP SP3) results in guest machine completely freeze. ET.EXE works flawlessly on real hardware (windows XP desktop). i think that is something wrong with realtime clock or VGA text color BIOS support (inside virtualized Guest, of course). ET.EXE is zipped and attached. The legacy program is public domain.

Bug confirmed.
Host: Win XP, Intel Core 2, VBox 3.2.6
Guest: Win XP
Crash happens only with soft-virt. It works with VT-x. Component should be changed to "VMM".

Please up priority to critical, because VM freezes, then crashes.
