Hi to all
question  regarding installing a windows program  (works on win 95 thru win 10).
in arcaos 5.0,3.  Program is Home Plan Pro.  I had this working sometime ago
( an old ver of ecomstation).  Any thoughts, suggestions on getting this installed,
if at all to work under Arca os.
thanks in advance
Regards    Phil

I have a nasty feeling that the only way you will get this working on ArcaOS is by using VirtualBox and even that can be problematic depending on your hardware (example: Vbox just runs on one of my Ryzen based computers but don't try and do anything with it) an older computer is better.

Others might have had better luck.

If it worked with eCS, it should work with ArcaOS. How did you set it up to work in eCS? Was it in WinOS2, under ODIN, or some other way? Since you say it works in win '95, I suspect that it was using ODIN. Install ODIN (it is probably already installed), and set it to run the program.

Hi

Is this the software?
Was it run with Odin? Since the site says it runs on W95, W98, W2K, XP, Vista, 7, 8 and 10, I guess it runs in 32bits, so maybe something can be tried with Odin.

I'm not using ArcaOS nor the software in question, but is Win-OS/2 DOS and affected by some non-fullscreen DOS session video issue of ArcaOS?
