Old MS software wont run on XP
I have some discs written by Microsoft for Windows 95. I have a new Dell 8400 running XP. I have made changes via the Help & Support Centre, using the Program Compatibility Wizard. I have tried all settings, and each time, a 16 bit Windows Subsystem screen opens, saying: 'this application is not suitable for MS-Dos & Window applications.' Does anybody have any suggestions as to what I can do to make XP accept the software? The MSN support site is very complex to find what I need. Can you help me?

Not all older Windows programs will run under XP but for your specific error message see if this helps.
