I have just had a new computer built with Windows XP Pro
running it. I have an old DOS based program that I use
for running a Church financial report. Can I load this
old DOS program and run it with the XP Pro? If so how do
I go about loading it?
I had it running with Windows 98, I would start in DOS
mode, If I can start in DOS mode with XP that is fine
with me, I just need to be instructed as to HOW??
Thank you
 
win xp - provides a 'dos emulator' - not the dos you
are ref'g running as a - 'separate os'
however
win xp does have successful accomodation for many
dos pgms - known as 'compatibility' - so
go start/help and support/search - compatible/
and
it will instruct you - so take it fr there

Bet you can not. At the least you can do is pickup an old computer for 25
bucks that will run it.
