How to run a program from 1993/95?

We have an old legacy of 1993 training program, training is as valid today as it was in 1993, and it would be useful to use this old software. Does anyone know how to get Windows read this? I "right click" on the file and run each option under 'Troubleshoot compatibility' with no luck.

Thanks in advance

You might be able to use a Virtual Machine?

Windows Virtual PC
Download Windows XP Mode
http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/Virtual-PC/Download.aspx

Windows XP Mode (Windows 7 only, but not one of the Home versions) "you are not eligible to download Windows XP Mode. You must have Windows 7 Professional, enterprise or full to run Windows XP Mode."    If you have an old XP CD (or other older Windows CD) available you can simply download the Virtual Machine and spend the XP Mode download.

This warranty covers the gambit set of VMS in the 'Home' versions if you want to have a look.  Of course you will need a licensed copy of XP to install and run in any of them (except XP Mode).

VirtualBox is an impressive VM competitor

    Try this program to change the start:

    http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx

    This utility, which has a knowledge of auto-starting locations of any startup monitor, shows you what programs configured to run at system startup or login and that the entries in the order of processing windows. These programs include those in your startup folder, Run, RunOnce, and other registry keys. You can configureAutoruns to show other locations, including Explorer shell, toolbar extensions, helper objects to the browser, Winlogon notifications, auto and many start-up services even more. Autoruns goes way beyond the MSConfig utility bundled with Windows Me and XP.

  • II you need VERY basic instructions on how to stop a program from running at startup, without the help of Windows Defender.

    I have a Vista operating system, I use Firefox as my browser and I have MS Security Essentials, I turn off my Windows Defender.  I want to disable some programs from starting automatically, but I can't figure out how do it when I can not use this feature in Windows Defender.  I'm not at all read and write or experienced in computers or software, so PLEASE keep this in mind.  I really need advice for flush on a kindergarten, with each specific step the easiest way, so I can understand & follow him.

    Thank you for your help in this matter, as well as for your understanding of my limitations.

    CA DJ

    Hello

    Without knowing the programs you want to disable, I'll start by saying that I can't be responsible for adverse effect to the normal operation of your system.

    That said...

    • Click Start
    • Type msconfig and press enter
    • Click on the Startup tab

    You will see checkboxes for programs that run at startup.

    Or you can use a more comprehensive tool called autoruns...

    http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx

    Maybe is a better way to explore the settings for the programs themselves, there is often a check box for "do not run at startup.

    Hi!, Ahkran:

    Happy new year and welcome to the Forum!

    (1) you need to download the library library 764, BESSEL V1.2, HP50G, in the HOME directory.

    Now, you need to install and stay permanently in memory, in any port (0, 1 or 2). Best if the option port 2 (Flash)...

    Now, reset the HP50G, with YOU and key F3 (C)...

    Find the library in Port 2, with orange right shift key and key LIB (2), with name BESSE. If necessary, use the NXT (L) key...

    Now press the function key (F1... F6), just below the word BESSE, in your HP50G.

    You have to see...

    and with NXT - key...

    Carefully read the instructions for use library 764, the .pdf file, the author.

  • How can I move programs from C to E?

    my C drive is nearly full, but my E drive is empty. I can (and how) move programs from C to E?

    Hello

    Installed software/programs can be moved easily using copy / paste.

    You can move the files to stand alone as images, documents, mp3, movies, etc. C to E, but if you move the folder of the program in the other place, the software would not start.
    So I recommend to increase the C partition.
    But before you'd change anything on the HARD drive, you must create the recovery disk.

    So, you can increase the partition C to E C space.
    For this, you need a tool of partitions, I use free software called GParted.
