Problems installing older programs on new p.c ?

[Gatz]

After 3 months of digging for answers and screwing around i finally get it. If you have the blue screen or pc just reboots for nor apparent reason just keep this thread alive and i will give you the answer. If on the other hand you dont have any problems screew it just let this die a peacefull death.

I lied


The answer:

Install the program
right mouse click on the icon
click on properties
click compatibility
click compatibility mode = run this program in compatibility mode for win95
click ok.

I am so pissed off and at the same time so happy i found this stupid problem.
