DOS

DOS

[Browndc1]

Have a Windows X-P Home Edition laptop, and a program from an old Windows 
"98" I am trying to run? The program is an engine computer program in MSDOS 
in old laptop, and I loaded it into the new computer with a floppy. It 
appears OK and I can change info in the program, but can not get it to 
communicate with the engine computer to download new information.
What is needed to be able to use DOS programs with the X-P?

Thanks,

Don Brown

My own proficiency with Window$ goes up to version 98. I haven't touched
XP.

i think you will find that most people on this list have more experience 
getting dos to run on linux than on XP.  that is the point of this list.

If you have purchased your operating system from Microsoft then perhaps you 
should contact them for your customer support needs.  i'm sure they will be 
as helpful as always.

good luck.
