[amsat-bb] InstantTrack on Win10?

[Alan]

Ed,

Take a look at DosBox, a program to allow old DOS programs to run on newer version of Windows:

http://www.dosbox.com/

I have used it on WIN7 and WIN8 to run ITrack in full screen mode, not WIN10 which I don't have yet,
but it would be worth a try.  If you do, let us know.  Like you, I enjoy getting ITrack out, mostly
for nostalgia.

73s,

Alan

<Here is the odd question of the month: Has anyone found a way to run the ancient tracking program
<InstantTrack on a Win10 machine? Win10 gives a bunch of run compatibility and screen options all the
<way back to Win95; none work. The Troubleshooter says it should run on XP. Same old "can't run on
<this PC" response. Before I am advised to get out of the stoneage, I do run SatPc32, HRD and
Orbitron.
<Just that IT has some stuff that I like. And, on XP, it is fast.

<Thanks!
