Go to START/PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/PROGRAM COMPATIBILITY WIZARD and follow the prompts from there.   You can check it out first, then install your DOS programs, then go back and set up the program via the wizard for each DOS program.  Some DOS programs you may find run just fine without going

I run DOS programs with XP.  Anything I ran with Windows Me, runs with XP now. It will even let you, through a "wizard", allow you to pick and choose if it ran better in Win95, Win98 or WinMe. One of them I run is the " hostmaster " program I use with my KamPlus for RITTY   73, Carl -
