Atlas Right track and Windows XP Pro ?

[Anonymous]

I've been trying to run the Right track software on my computer but it seems the software doesn't like XP Pro.
Anyone else have this problem,,And is there a cure?

I had a similiar problem with two other programs when using XP. When I upgraded XP with the newest service pack, it would not run old 16bit programs. Could it be that the Atlas Right Track program is a 16bit program and not a 32bit program?

Try using the help for the XP Pro to see if you can find more information about running older programs.

Try this with RTS:

To set the compatibility properties for a program manually
Right-click the program icon on your desktop or the shortcut on the Start menu for the program you want to run, and then click Properties.
Click the Compatibility tab, and change the compatibility settings for your program.
Notes

The Compatibility tab is only available for programs installed on your hard drive. Although you can run the Program Compatibility Wizard on programs or setup files on a CD-ROM or floppy disk, your changes will not remain in effect after you close the program.
For more information about an option on the Compatibility tab, right-click the option and then click What's This.

In XP you have the possibility to change the way XP looks to a program. You can choose windows '95 'till 2000 as setup when opening a program. I guess that's what
