In Response To: No Autoexec.bat with Windows XP... (Family pubs spy needs help!)
...create a new partition on your hard drive and install Windows 98se on the new partition as a second OS and set up your boot command to do a dual boot start up.
If a program depends on DOS then it will NOT run on XP, period! It's been so long since I partitioned my hard drive for two systems that I can't remember exactly how to do it without screwing eveerything up. Maybe someone else here can help.
