It will run in 32-bit Win 7, but only in a window, not full-screen.
You can size the window and fonts so that it covers however much of
the screen you want, but it will still be a window. If you want full-
screen XyWrite with DOS colors under 32-bit or 64-bit Windows, the
best way (IMO) is to run vDosXy. Alternatively, you can run Windows
XP or an earlier version of Windows in a virtual machine (VirtualBox,
VMWare, VirtualPC, etc.). There's plenty of information in the list
archives, which are searchable:
