    Default 16-bit program on a 64-bit processor

    Does anyone know of a utility which would allow a 16-bit programme to run on a 64-bit processor?

    this worked on XP for some old skool games I wanted to play.

    Right click on the shortcut for your game/program then click the compatability tab. Then you can choose how you want to run it ie: display settings and colours, under a different operating system.

    If that doesnt work then you could download and use an emulation program called Dosbox and run it from there.
