RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re:Computer set up question.

Alas yes I am but just a lurker.
I would set up the computer as a win98 machine.
I to still use my machine for DOS programs.
You can load your program, I assume it is on disk, to the default
drive/path.
You can either enter DOS from the START/PROGRAM menu. There is a DOS startup
there. If not look in the help file.
OR you can find the program in the windows explorer, or do a find for the
program, and drag a shortcut start icon to the desktop.

If this is confusing then email me at achord@... and I can help you
from there.
