I bought a new PC with Windows XP Media. I attached my old hard drive from my old PC running Win 98. I can see all files as a slave drive. I want to run an old program of Quickbooks but I can't. Will running the old program using XP compatibility mode work? Thanks in advances.
 
What error message are you getting?

It is easy enough to try Compatibility Mode and to see what happens. Have you installed Quickbooks in XP or are you trying to run it from the 98 drive?
