    Older Software Won't Work On Win XP Pro
    Hi guys,
    Speedball1 from the Plumbing Page here. I have a bunch of flight simulations left over from my old computer that are Win 95 programs. Is there a way I can load and install them on a Win XP Pro platform and make them work? I've gone into propertys and did the compatibility thing. No joy! Any ideas out there or do I just convert the old CDs into frisbees? Thanks, Tom

    Hi,
    I posted an answer in another post to your question.
    No, it won't work with XP.
    Best of luck in finding some "copies" of CDs, similar to yours, using a Search engine, that will work with XP.
