RE: dumb questions how to install



Hi guys, dumb questions continue:

I cannot find an editor.exe file in the files I downloaded. I do find X2D.EXE and D2X.EXE....would somebody tell me what these are, and the difference between them?

When I run them, I do get a xywrite screen for a few seconds, which then disappears, but I'm not able to get a command typed in to do anything before the screen disappears, and the screen is only half the page. (I'm running Windows XP in an old Panasonic Toughbook laptop).

Do I need to create a virtual PC first in order to run one of them?

Best, Charles

Hi, I'm sure this is somewhere in the archives, but I can't figure out how to find it...

 

...if someone could direct me to the appropriate archive, I'd really appreciate it.

 

I am running Windows XP in a Panasonic Toughbook Laptop; I need to run Xywrite III.

 

However, it would be good if I can keep XP running at the same time, in order to access internet, send files via wireless routing to printer for printing, etc, at the same time I'm using Xywrite III...

 

....so, I THINK I need to create a virtual PC...so I can run Xywrite III under DOS and Windows under XP at the same time???

 

I used to be Xywrite and XPL fluent, and I can get all that back, but I am clueless about how to do this multi-platform thing in the same laptop...

 

Best, Charles
