16-bit Windows application in a separate virtual machine in a Windows XP system?

There is no more virtual machine in windows XP and windows 2000\nI think this option was available in windows 9x products.\n\nWindows XP and 2000 are fully 32bit operating systems.

Probably not.\nRight click My Computer on your desktop. Select Properties. Select "Advanced". Select the "Settings" button that's under Performance. Select the Tab Advanced. Click on the Change button at the bottom of that Tab. Check to see if the Virtual Memory settings have been set by someone. If so, change it to "Let Windows control the size of the virtual memory" (something like that, I'm on a Dutch version of XP).

You cannot just copy the software from one computer to another, you need to install the software. When you install any software, there are many other files associated to the main .exe file to run. If those files are not found you get error messages.\n\nBut if you are getting the error message such as above "application not valid win32", that means, this particular application is actually not a valid executable file, for example try to do something like this:\n\nChoose a picture file like IMG0039.JPG and rename it to IMG0039.EXE, now double click to run this .exe file and you will get the error "application not valid win32".\n\n\nTry re-installing the application, sometimes you also get such error if the installed file is corrupted. Re-installing the application will should solve the problem and also check your computer for errors by following this:\n\nOn windows XP\n- Open My Computer, select the drive you want to check for errors, usually it is C:\n- Right click on C: then click on properties,\n- click on the tools tab and click on Check Now.

The first answer is correct, you don't need to install a full version of windows to use an exe file. There are emulators out there for that purpose.

you can do that.  I'm running virtual PC with windows xp pro in my Macintosh . it works well, you can download any .exe  software (i don't recommend it for games), just a little slower but worthy. if you are planing to use virtual PC ..  be sure you  have a lot of ram ( more than 1GB )\n\nps. if you have a mac and want to use virtual pc .. please get an antivirus. (just to prevent)  i never got ads or spyware

...not sure why you would want to do that, but you could attach some sort of batch file or executable to the windows shell.  It's somewhat unstable but i've seen it done.

Yeah it's possible. Here's the MS article: \nhttp://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/setup/learnmore/multiboot.mspx

Can you be more specific? Have you tried running it in a DOS environment? Old 16 bit games will work perfectly on a 32 bit Win XP machine...so what are you trying to do?

Nobody would ever go that low level in an application - never! In fact, you'll run into great difficulty if you try. Modern NT-based OSes (XP, Windows 2000, Windows 2003, Vista) will NOT let you have any direct access to hardware, through the HAL.\n\nThere are plenty of APIs in Win32 and .NET Framework to let you work with files and directories. Build yourself a nice recursive system with the existing APIs, rather than trying an improbable stunt like going to the FAT file system... (and are you even sure your system uses FAT? It could well be NTFS in a modern system.)

From my understanding, it sounds like you want to "copy" you install of windows XP onto another computer.  This will not work for a few reasons. 1) The current WinXP installation is configured for the machine its on right now.  If you transfer exactly that windows install it will not load. (without some major hacks)\n2)It's technically illegal to install one copy of windows xp on two machines.\n\nBut on the other hand to transfer information between the two machines, the easiest solution is to pull the Hard drive from the 98 machine and stick it in the XP machine.  XP will recognize this new drive and make it a local drive (E, or some other letter).  From that point you can tranfer information to and from it like any other storage device.

What kind of operating system are you currently using?  Is it XP 64 bit?

A FAT-32 partition works for me on my duel-boot XP and Freespire box.

If you had Windows XP you wouldn't have illegal operations..
