Hello all,
I have a ham radio program that runs just fine on a Windows 98SE machine but apparently does not
like Windows XP Professional. The program is a logging program, which keeps track of the 53,000+
contacts that I have made since becoming a ham radio operator in 1981.
The name of the program is called "CT" and I made a directory on the hard drive and called it CT.
When I bring up the command prompt after clicking the start button, then clicking "all programs"
and then "accessories" and selecting "command prompt," I change directories to the CT directory.
I then try to execute the CT.exe and it brings up the program in a box that is less than the full size
of the screen. When I try to enter information, it allows me to enter in some information and then
it will not allow me to enter the rest of it.
Is there a way to have the computer boot up in DOS - that is, to bring up the command prompt
(root directory), where I can then change directories and execute the CT.exe?
I saw someone mention "DOSBOX" as a possible fix for this but have not investigated that. I thought
that I would ask my question first. Thanks for any help!
