Programs That Won't Work In Xp

I know I tried Iomega Hotburn on XP, and couldn't get it to work. Not a big deal if your using Nero or something like that, but I use Iomega to get the track titles to show on my CD player without having to be programed :(

Only game that I have not been able to get working is Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2. Yea 3 is cool but I still like 2 as well. That sucks. THen again I dual boot with win99 so I can play fine. :P

there is a way to run older games on xp by right cliking on .exe for the game and enable it to run in the compatiablity mode a good majority of older games should work. But dont hold me to this i have only heard this from others

When I upgraded to xp I didn&#39;t have any software issues. The problem was hardware. My printers, Video game controllers and alot of USB devices. The thing that pissed me off was i had a microsoft precision pro 2 ( joystick made BY <_< MICROSOFT :huh: ) and it no longer works. Man WTF&#33;&#33; what a joke.

That&#39;s another one of my big concerns. Will I be able to use my Gravis Eliminator in XP? Will my ancient Plustek scanner still work? What about Dazzle - I hear bad things about that. Anyone?

XP has a compatability mode enabling any games/software to be run by selecting the properties of the *.exe file and choosing compatabilites ---&#62; then run in mode ........ allowing you to run 95, 98, ME, 2000 progs on XP if you have any problems :) atleast it&#39;s worked for me so far, but then again it is made by microsoft....... :lol: hope this helps :D

Windows 2000 Pro all the way&#33; :w00t:
