I have a program/game The Star Trek Omnipedia. It was loaded on my old pc
which was a Win98se machine. I know XP Pro can run some older progs. But w/o
finding out the hard way, how can I tell if this will work on this new pc?
I tried posting this on a XP newgroup, and you wouldn't believe the fight I
got.
No real answer. Just 2 guys arguing over the answer. So I figure maybe here.

Heh, what "hard way"? Just load it up and try it - it probably will run.
If not switch the executable's mode to "Windows 98" compatible and try
again.
