Hello David,
>But can anybody reassure me (or warn me) about whether I can run XyW 3.54 for DOS under Window 7 *64bit*--with what's called Windows 7 XP mode?
The answer is simple. No, you cannot without a virtualization program (Windows 7 64-bit XP mode is
one, it is just a repackaged Virtual PC running XP 32-bit !), whereas under Win 7 32-bit you could
without this layer.
See: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/896458 and http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-windows_programs/how-to-run-16-bit-dos-exe-files-in-windows-7/6744ca2a-863b-4229-9fb8-071532d3d998 for more information.
