Win7 has enough problems that I'm forced to keep my old WinXP

1. can't run 16 bit programs
Really, have no sympathy there :)
BTW, you should be able to do this with XP mode.

I checked that, but there was some other issue with that that made it
useless.
Yeah, running 16-bit in win7 is difficult (next to impossible?).
We ended up using virtualized xp machines for 16-bit applications at
work :)
XP Mode *is* a virtualized XP Pro instance.
I'm unaware of the limitation Walter speaks of. I know it won't do
hardware graphics acceleration, but other than that, I think it works just
like an XP system, except the application windows are displayed like they
were running on your win7 system.
