Currently not much time, of course you use the older versions of ILPer. Nothing changed in the Virtual HP-IL protocol.

I just made a quick check under DOSBox. Copied REVERSI from ILPer to the internal drive and got an error. The file of the internal drive was corrupted and at a restart the Emu71/DOS memory was cleared.

I made the same test with Emu71/DOS but this time with VirtualBox and FreeDOS and everthing worked fine. Same virtual image, but now under VMware 12, also fine.

Final test with DOSBox and a shortcut in ILPilsim: Out Port = In Port, so no external device. The transfer from REVERSI memory to REVERSI:2 disk failed also.

Somewhere the serial implementation of DOSBox has a serious problem.
