XP Mode /can/ be installed on Home versions of Win7 - Google it (usual
caveats on security considerations).

I solved the problem using VMWare Client with an OS of WIN XP Pro. I gave
it a virtual drive of 0.5 G.
Fox -- FoxPro Dos and FPW 2.6a -- actually run faster than under my older
XP machines.
Vitual XP ran very, very slow.

Hey folks,
I know this kinda of topic has been discussed before - re:16-bit apps
running under a 32-bit OS. But, I normally figured the problem happens
w/REALLY Old SW - like FoxPro for Win Apps attempting to run under like
Win7 or Win8. But, in my case - its Photoshop Elements. Essentially a
"cut-down" version of Photoshop. I have the Older version of the program -
been running it for a number of years on different systems of mine. Its
running fine on my laptop under Vista. '
So - i tried installing it on my newest Desktop - running Win7. Previously
when I tried it - I got some error message window during the install. But,
NOW - I just tried installing it again - to get more feedback - and NOTHING
Comes up after the Win UAC window is displayed and I hit YES. Its just like
nothing happens!
Although - when I go into Processes in Task Manager - I now see SEVEN
Instances of a 32-Bit Setup Launcher running - confirming I attempted SEVEN
Times to install it (the last 2 times - I did it just to see where a
process would show up - since there was Another process that had 4
occurrences - but, it did NOT Gen another occurrence upon trying to run the
Setup again - and that's when i found this Other 32-Bit process).
What can I do? Do I need to run some kinda VMWare - and then I can Install
& Run this older PS App? Or - any work-around to get it to install normally
under Win7 - and then just USE this App under Win7?
TIA,
Kurt
