i try installing MagixMusicStudio(win95-98), and according to windowsxp, the program should work if i manually make them compatible by using the properties option. well, i did, and the program appears to be installed, but when i try to run it i get a "please isntall program from cd!" message. while installing the program i got this "error loading w95inf32.dll" msg, if that helps at all, but i hope i can install this win95 program cus xp says u can, i hope u guys can help, thank you

if you installed NTFS it may be the problem.I've got NTFS installed and Ive gotten the same error but i didnt want the program so bad.Try to manually put the ?.dll
file onto the drive or copy the whole cd to harddive install and erase the copy of cd on harddrive.

Did you just copy the programme over? If that is what you did then the system files needed to run the programme have not been installed and the programme won't run.
