Hi Machets
If the programs are giving a warning that they are incompatible with Windows
XP, right click and view the properties of their setup file. View the
compatibility tab, you can now select the operating system you would like to
run the program as. You might need to do this again on the shortcut the the
actual program once it is installed. If you having problems with older
Windows games the 640x480 and 256 colour options can be of great help.
