    Problem Running Ms-dos Program In Vista

    I am having Vista Ultimate in my laptop.
    I want to run a ms-dos program (developed in foxpro 2.0 for dos) in this system. I get error message 'can not run this program in this version of windows'. It was working in XP with out any problem.
    How can i solve this ?

    Please help me.

    You could try running the program in compatibility mode. Click here for instructions on how to do so. Try XP first of all and if that fails, try an older version of Windows such as 2000 or 98.

    If that doesn't work then this is a problem that probably cannot be solved because it would appear that the program is simply incompatible with Vista. If it's not compatible, there is nothing you can do short of sorting out the actual program itself to run on Vista.
