can someone tell me if there is really a way to install older programs on the xp o/s because when i do my install it keeps asking me for win95 o/s but im running xp if there is a way to do this install pleas let me know asap thnksssssss
:confused:
 
find the EXE of the prog and right click and properties\compatibility, then turn iut on and set it to win 95
 
That might not 100% work, as XP ain't built to run back end titles.

Here is what I do. I have a small (18GB) partition with windows 98se on it and I install all my old programs there. You could also have one with win95 or just dos.
 
Try canadian_divx's suggestion first ... if it doesn't help, I guess you'd be forced to dual-boot, as wingman says.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
