Have you tried running the applications in compatibility mode?  It will let
you simulate an older O/S environment.  It works sometimes.  Right click on
the application exe file, choose properties and go to the compatibility tab.
It's pretty self-explanatory from there.

Installing another O/S after you have already installed WinXP is difficult
unless you use a boot manager.  You can find some of those at Tucows
http://www.tucows.com/boot95_default.html or with a google search.

Subject: [PCBUILD] HOW I CAN USE MORE THAN ONE OPERATING SYSTEMS?

HI, EVERY BODY.

GREETINGS.

I HAVE XP WINDOWS ON MY PC. THERE ARE ONE OR TWO PROGRAMS DISTURBED AND
NOT WORKING PROPERLY EVEN AFTER UNINSTALLING AND REINSTALLING.
I DONT WANT TO FORMAT AND RUN AFRESH OPERATING SYSTEM AND REARRANGE ALL OF
MY PROGRAMS.

IS THERE ANY POSSIBILITY I CAN ADD/USE ANY OTHER OPERATING
SYSTEM (WIN98) ON THIS PC? HOW AND WHAT STEPS TO BE TAKEN FOR THIS?

I ALSO NEED HELP/SHORT NOTE(S) IN ARRANING MORE THAN ONE OPERATING
SYSTEMS.

THANKS AND BEST REGARDS.
